You're not the only one playing a role in tree climbing, making friends with trees and developing a sense of respect for nature. Trees, forests, all natural environments play a leading role. I enter the forest with the feeling of "Please play with me today" to the tree that will experience tree climbing. When you climb a tree and become friends with it, and when you come down from the top of the tree, you will develop a "heart" that values ​​nature. History of tree climbing Today, in America, the birthplace of tree climbing, tree climbing is a technique developed by American arborists to manage trees and preserve genetic resources. Arborists have a global organization called ISA (International Society of Arboriculture). Originally, tree climbing was a technique reserved for some arborists, but in 1983, Peter Jenkins established Tree Climbers International (TCI) in Atlanta, Georgia so that the general public could enjoy it as a recreational activity. An organization was established and spread. Starting with the United States, TCI has expanded its network to Canada, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Taiwan, and Japan.
