Tarzan Swing
Add to Daddio CalendarGive your best Tarzan yell and take a swing on old growth Riverbank Grapevines (Vitis riparia)! A lucky find along riverbanks (duh), near forest clearings, and alongside roads or railroad tracks, these vines can stretch to the tops of the trees and will swing freely when cut at the bottom. An invasive vine common in all but very arid states will not be missed by the ecosystem and is sure to bring lots of spontaneous joy. Note, however, that there will always be a risk related to its load capacity and Humpty Dumpty potential. Don’t miss the opportunity when stumbling upon these natural swing sets – always bring a good serrated knife along for a hike. We recommend the Gerber NXT.
