A recent inquiry for 'Adventure Adviser' ..
Where in the United States can I stay overnight in a tree?
Adviser answers at the base of Mt. Rainier in suspended 2-storey pods. The pods or spheres are constructed using old cedar or spruce trees and either suspended 200 feet above ground on large, straight conifer trees or placed inside larger maple or oaks trees. Observation deck access available from each tree house via a 500-pound steel bridge.
A tree lover, aah I can already invision myself turning off the lights at night in my sphere bed and floating in the canopy among the sleeping birds. And not just any bird! Spotted owls and bald eagles!
"The two-level treehouse spans 16 by 16 feet, and can accommodate up to five people. From above the treeline you can enjoy views of the Sawtooth Ridge peaks while spending the night with spotted owls and bald eagles. A glass-enclosed observation deck sits on the fourth floor, complete with a hammock for swinging above the trees. With Mount Rainier National Park just ten minutes away, you'll probably feel like exploring beneath the canopies for a while. Hike up to High Rock Lookout, the last manned lookout in the Packwood Ranger District, where you'll get clear views of Mount Rainier, Mount St. Helens, and Mount Adams."
This sounds like a dream and I want to live it! Oh how this makes me want to live in a tree!
