A video showing a fun and lengthy climb in a glorious and ancient Beech tree that has been standing guard over a rocky hillside in Southeastern Ohio for nearly a quarter millennium. There was a throw bag rescue and some DMM Hook play and practice to help overcome the plumb bob effect caused by the slightly leaning canopy.

I'm a self taught climber and enjoy learning from viewers and fellow climbers. Please leave comments or suggestions to help me improve and refine my technique.

Is there an official term for the plumb bob effect(other than gravity?
