Popular Mechanics, August 2009

By the time I glide onto the Almost Heaven platform - at 90 feet, the course's highest perch - I've zipped along 3430 feet of cable... - T Edwards Nickens, Popular Mechanics

"By the time I glide onto the Almost Heaven platform - at 90 feet, the course's highest perch - I've zipped along 3430 feet of able and teetered across five sky bridges so high I could see   into squirrel nests.  I'm no longer chewing on my stomach with the first steps out of the trees, no longer scared to look down.  Instead, I jump eagerly from the platforms.  Hands off the harness, I spin in midair. 
I can't wait to fly."   -T. Edward Nickens



Spent the afternoon zipping thru the air on the canopy tour zipline.  Everyone was right, I LOVED IT! - Londa J.
I was super scared initially, but eventually I loosened up and had a riot of a good time.  The guides and staff were fantastic.  TWO THUMBS UP!
