A group of my friends and I did TreeGo at Wildplay Element Park in Nanaimo this Saturday night- what a BLAST!  This was a great night out playing in the trees, yes, in the dark (headlights where provided)! 

At some points (the fourth level) you are 70ft up in the tree canopy.  It was such a thrill, in fact I didn't sleep that night as my adrenaline was still pumping!  Some of the 'elements' include: ladders, hanging tunnels, tarzan swing, nets, tight ropes, swinging ladders, log swings, zig-zag swing bridges, stir-ups and of course a few zip lines through the trees into the unknown (well at lest unseen!). 

There was group of seven of us and another group of about ten out that night so so it took a bit over three hours to complete, but worth every minute and dollar (under $50.00). After the course they warm you up with hot chocolate and a bonfire.  Not sure how much longer they are offering this as I know it was on for September/October Saturday nights- but whether you do it in the dark or not- Wildplay is a great place to play!
