→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 ==
coming out of the physics building and watch them turn about in
bewilderment trying to find the source of the voice. However, in the
spring, one does have to watch out for gypsy moth [[eastern tent caterpillars]] that tend to swarm on the branches.
== Red maple in front of the chem/computer science building ==
hide, if that's what you want to do.
== American beech on path from Stetson to Mission (or from Bernhard to [[DoddHouse|Dodd]]) ==
This tree, east of the temporary mailroom, is perfect for mulitple arborealists; its many accessible branches are kind even to inexperienced climbers.
== American beech in [[Forest Garden]] (between [[Stetson]] and [[CES]])==
You'll need a boost up to the first branch, but after that it's lots of comfy crotches and sturdy limbs. Depending on the season, there may even be fresh berries or other goodies to snack on growing in the gardens below.
== Oak near "Climb high" gate ==
== Maple on road down to Mission ==
In between sidewalk to [[Dodd House|Dodd]] and Dennitt [[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
