 Since Mount Skigal opened their zipline tours last May, they have taken on a handful of thrill seekers. For this week's Northwoods Adventure, Art Taylor Archer went on a tour to find out what the thrill was all about. Ziplining might be one of the most popular activities for those seeking an adrenaline rush. Maybe it's the feeling of gliding over trees from 60 feet up or experiencing a 50-foot free fall that brings people to the Brainerd zipline tours. For others, this might be a little out of their comfort zone. Many it'll be their very first time going out on a zipline. The very first step that they take on the first line tends to be one of the hardest ones, where they're for the first time stepping off of a platform 60 feet in the air and their body is kind of fighting that. There is always a challenge for even the most experienced. I'm terrified of heights and so today was that first 50-foot free fall that I've never done before and it takes you a lot to get off that platform but you just have to have that faith. And when you have your loving family members down below saying you can do it, then that helps too. I don't believe a fear can ever actually be conquered. What I believe is happening is that we're understanding how that fear is affecting our actions. And so many people will experience that fear, push through it, and then I believe that that can help set them up for greater success in other areas. And these zipline tours are not just about seeking a thrill. It's about doing something you did not think you could do. It's going to be okay that many people have done it before you and that you just have to have a little faith in yourself. At the end of the tour, there's more to take away than just an adrenaline rush. It's this thought of I can do more than I originally expected and they can realize that they are capable of so much more than they really believe.
