Tree between Woodbridge and Droppers
[[Category:Guides]][[Category:Activity]]The Williams campus has many lovely trees which are great for climbing, if you like that sort of thing. Here are some favorites of the Williams tree-climbing community. Trees also make for great [[hammock spots]].

== Magnolia beside Thompson Chapel ==
hide, if that's what you want to do.
== American beech on path from Stetson to Mission (or from Bernhard to [[Dodd House|Dodd]]) ==
This tree, east of the temporary mailroom, is perfect for mulitple arborealists; its many accessible branches are kind even to inexperienced climbers.
== Maple on road down to Mission ==
In between sidewalk to [[Dodd House|Dodd]] and [[Dennett House|Dennett]] entrance. There's a skinny branch that hangs almost vertically down which can be climbed like a rope up to the branch.
== Tree between Woodbridge and Droppers ==
I don't know what kind of tree it is, but it's pretty easy to climb and quite sturdy, despite its flimsy appearance.
 
== Other Trees as of 2019 ==
* Science quad near Morgan
* Tree right outside Mission
* Tree at the intersection of Park St and Route 2
* Fun ones on the way down to Cole Field
