This is one of [[Brent Yorgey|my]] favorite trees to climb, located in front of the [[Thompson Physical Lab|physics building]] and across the street from [[Jesup Hall]]. Gettinginto the tree initially is a bit of a trick; it requires standing onthe railing dividing the sidewalk from the grass, grabbing the nearestbranch, and swinging one's legs up onto an adjacent branch. (Alternatively, a good vertical leap from the base of the trunk can get you a handhold and you can swing your legs up onto the adjacent branch.) Once inthe branches, however, it is quite easy to maneuver and continueclimbing up. There is a nook about 20 feet up where three branchescome together which is perfect for sitting in, whether to bask in thesun, take a nap, or do a problem set. It's also fun to talk to people
