HIGH ELEMENTS:

Dual Ziplines – Camp Timberline’s dual ziplines are the highlight of our high elements. The participants, securely attached in their harness, step off of a 26’ tower and “soar” down the 600’ cables . The participant exits the zipline using a ladder.

Gut Check – The gut check is Camp Timberline’s newest high element. The participant slides off of a platform 25’ above the ground, feeling like a bungee jump, ultimately swinging in a giant circle. The swing cable is directly attached the participant’s harness. The participant exits the swing via a ladder.

Climbing Wall – Our climbing wall is a 26’ wooden wall with two “negatives” to provide for additional difficulty.

Silencer – The participant is attached to a cable that is pulled up by their team to the height of their choice. When ready, a release cord is pulled and the participant swings. This element is a lot of fun and gets a large group of people involved in the experience.

Challenge Course – The challenge course is a series of elements located 15’ above ground. The participant makes his or her way through the elements with the help of the staff, and then rides the solo zipline down.

Leap of Faith – The leap of faith usually brings out the height of emotional, mental, and physical challenge. The participant climbs a pole and makes his or her way to the platform above and leaps out for the trapeze dangling slightly out of reach. It provides the ultimate goal for many participants.

LOW ELEMENTS:

Mohawk Traverse – The group is asked to traverse a series of low (18” off the ground) cables tautly strung between trees. The object is to get the entire group through the sequence without touching the ground.

Trust Fall – A platform is affixed to a large tree approximately four feet above the ground. The activity involves a person falling backwards from the platform into the arms and hands of the group. Each group member can opt to take a turn as faller.

Blind Maze – The group is blindfolded and then led single-file into the maze. The object is for the entire group to eventually find their way out of the maze. Keep in mind, we all need a little help from our friends.

Wild Woozy – The Wild Woozy challenges participants to travel face-to-face down a widening set of steel cables tightly strung between two trees until you can go no more! Group spotting and encouragement blends with personal challenge in this element.
Birthday Log – The Challenge: Stay on the telephone pole and shuffle your group into order---without saying a word! Communication is key and so is great balance!

Spider Web – A web made of rope and thinner cord is the setting for this classic initiative problem. The group must try to get its members through the web without touching any of the ropes that make up the openings. As each web opening is used by a participant, it is then figuratively closed to further passage by anyone else.
