Full Moon Tree Climb

Last night I climbed to the top of a giant sequoia tree. I have never climbed so high in a tree before. I have never been in a tree that is so perfect for climbing. This tree is probably about 60 feet tall, maybe more, and it's very healthy, with many similarly sized branches, which makes for a pretty easy climb. I don't know how old the tree is, but its leaves are very healthy, and it must be 6 or 8 feet in diameter at breast height. I would guess it's somewhere in the vicinity of 100 years old.

The Moon is full right now. Here's a photo of the moon from about half way up the tree.
