There are many reasons why people climb trees. For some, it's a way to relax and "get away from it all." For others, tree climbing is a career choice, such as tree work or canopy research. No matter what your purpose, TCI and our colleagues provide tree climbing instruction to anyone who wants to learn, either in courses held in Atlanta/Jacksonville or at other tree climbing schools where the instructor's expertise is more appropriate to a student's needs. Instructors Peter Jenkins (left), Tim Kovar (center), and Abe Winters (right) are well-known and loved in the recreational tree climbing community.
Most new climbers share the same confusion when they buy gear for the first time: There's so much out there! What should I get?" "Will I really use it?" The kind of gear you buy will depend on your reasons for being in the trees. Are you a recreational climber? Do you climb frequently, or just once in a while? Do you do tree work for a living? Make sure to buy gear that is appropriate for the climbing you want to do. For example, the TCI-designed kits for beginning recreational or professional climbers, available at WesSpur and American Arborist Supplies, have everything you need -- and nothing you don't need -- in quality gear.

" ... trees are dying without humans laying a hand on them, at least physically, and they are not resprouting. Forests cover 30% of the planet’s land surface, and yet, as humans heat the atmosphere, some locations where they would have grown now appear too dry or hot to support them."
