are strictly scheduled. In order to ensure that everyone has an enjoyable day, please be mindful of showing up on time.

The course is built to meet or exceed the Association for Challenge Course Technology (ACCT) standards. The guides go through a rigorous training program before being certified. The course and equipment are inspected daily to ensure your safety.

When you arrive at the welcome center, you will meet your guides who will help you gear up, take you through a short practice session and accompany
you through your entire zipping experience. The guides will be responsible for securing your harness to all of the lines as you zip through the trees
and navigate the aerial bridges.

The course is designed and built so that the experience is maximized and the impact on the environment is minimized. The course is experienced from
the air and on foot, preserving the integrity of the forest. Additionally, Geronimo Construction’s proprietary platform designs have the fewest tree intrusions
in the industry and allow for the tree to grow naturally without experiencing repetitive injury. Additionally, we hope that you learn something
about beautiful Southern Illinois.
