This three-sided tower was built for Camp Shoresh in Maryland.  They chose a different climbing element for each side: a Climbing Wall, a Giant's Ladder, and a Cargo Net.  To add to the excitement, a Zip Line was added, taking off of the deck at the top of the wall.

The Site 
First the site is selected, cleared if necessary, and flagged.

Pole Setting
We contract professional pole setters to initiate the construction.

Construction Begins
Building begins.  A lift is used whenever possible to increase efficiency and safety.

Wall Framing
The framing and deck are finished first.

Wall Decking
The decking of the climbing wall is completed, and work on the other elements has begun.

Zip Line
The Zip Line is added. Participants will zip to the other side of the field in the background.

Finished Tower
With the Cargo Net hung and the wood chips in place, the wall is ready for use.
