Early this summer, I read about some Facebook friends having some fun zip lining at Berkshire East Canopy Tours in Charlemont, MA. I never even knew that you could go zip lining in MA! Well, I went this week with my son Andrew, my friend Silvia, and her son Brandon. It was the perfect outdoor activity for our 16 year old sons! Silvia and I got a kick out of it! It was a lot of fun! I got to tell you, I was nervous until I finished my first zip line! There were 7 zip lines in our package. We had 2 great tour guides. One lead the group and collected us at the next platform, and the other one followed behind. We felt safe at all times. It was over before we knew it! We ended our time at Berkshire East with a nice picnic in the shade. It was a great day! I highly recommend it!
Have you ever done this before? I’d love to hear about it!
We managed to take a few short video clips. This is me in the first video.
In this video, Andrew (left) and Brandon (right) were supposed to have a little race! But someone left a little early!
This is Silvia!
This shows Andrew coming into the platform for an easy landing. Some of our landings were faster than this one.
Yahoo Jane!!!! So glad you liked it!!! We are looking to go again - want to come? Trying for Fall Foliage season!!
Zipping among the colored leaves would be awesome Meg! Have a great time! It’s a little too soon for me to go back.
How cool for you! Looks like fun - I only have a tad bit of adverturesome spirit in me, but do think I could enjoy this! What a GReat thing to do with your sons! Lovely videos - thanks for sharing and stirring this ‘fun’ spirit in me….WAY TO GOOOOOOOOO!
