>>1025964Anon, it is an acquired skill to bear-hug up a tree. It requires a moderate fitness level, and twice the determination.I've done it a few times, and the worst part i find is having to get down. I advise learning a "parkour roll" as it really saves your feet/joints from injury when you fall/jump. Strattle the tree with some good shoes and try to grip spots on the tree to climb higher. Inch yourself up, and don't doubt yourself. The payoff is pretty nice when you get up to that branch 10-15 feet off of the ground. Happy climbing anon
