tree climbing
Scaling trunk upward
Tree climbing is the activity of ascending trees, whether for recreation, sport, arborist work, or practical purposes like rescue or harvesting.
Recreational tree climbing uses ropes and harnesses similar to rock climbing equipment.
Children climb trees for play; professionals climb them for pruning or removal.
Tree climbing requires upper body strength and good judgment about which branches will hold.
