Branch Leap and Drumroll

I pushed off the forest floor with both knuckles and launched right toward the weathered wooden ramp winding up the central tree! Scrambling past the rough bark, I spotted a chunky platform branch jutting out above. With a swift swing of my arms, I hooked my grip over the rounded edge and pulled myself up into the breezy heights. Perched near a thick knot in the wood, I laid down a brisk, hollow double-tap with my palms against the trunk, letting the deep knock echo through the canopy to see who might be nearby!
