October 2, 2019 - Tree Climbing at Ashford

When the Guiness family owned Ashford, they planted some California Redwood trees. They're huge now! We got to climb one...


You start with a tall ladder, then a couple of freestyle grips,


Then you're off...


You get hard to see rather quickly.






The view is great!


But it is a long way up!



We try again on the more difficult route.






Then back to the stables to feed our friends with leftovers from breakfast.





The drive south from Ashford...
