Never say, “I wish I had been on the Mount Sunapee Zip Line Canopy Tour”

My wife and I had visitors from Georgia. Sarah, their sixteen year old daughter, heard about the Mount Sunapee Canopy Zip Line Tour. Sarah, being a fellow outdoor enthusiast, wanted to do the Zip Line Tour — and so did I.

What is a zip line? Well, a zip line (also known as a zip wire, aerial runway, aerial rope slide, death slide, flying fox, or canopy tour) consists of a pulley suspended on a cable, usually made of stainless steel, mounted on an incline. It is designed to enable a user propelled by gravity to travel from the top to the bottom of the inclined cable by holding onto, or attaching to, the freely moving pulley. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip-line).

The Mount Sunapee Canopy Zip-Line Tour features a series of zip lines, rope bridges and rappelling as you descend from the top of Mt Sunapee’s South Peak. There are eight zip lines in total highlighted by the final 1,000′ dual zip lines to a platform behind the Welcome Center, from where we rappelled back down to earth. From the first tree platform to the last platform we traveled a distance of almost ¾ of a mile above the forest floor. Groups of no more than eight people are led by two guides as you fly through a canopy of oak, beech, maple, birch and evergreen trees. There are six ski trail crossings that offer spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and Lake Sunapee. [https://www.mountsunapee.com/mtsunapeewinter/index.asp .]

Sarah and I were the only people in our group, and our tour took less than two hours.

To qualify as to who can go on the zip line tour, you must be 10 years old or older and between 80 and 260 pounds.

We had two excellent guides, Mary and Martha. They absolutely were part of the positive experience of doing this adventure — and they insured our safety.

Safe at All Times

The Clip-In With each platform, the moment we reached the platform we were clipped to the tree — not once by three times. We could not fall off the platform if we slipped, stumbled, or were pushed. As Sarah and I took turns jumping first, we remained clipped to the tree until we were positioned, and one by one — a clip was release and then re-clipped to the zip line. Thus, again, in case we jumped or slipped before being ready or instructed, we still would not fall from the platform.

Before each jump, we received instruction pertinent to the particular zip line, bridge, or belay we were about to do. [Belaying refers to a variety of techniques climbers use to exert on a climbing rope so that a falling climber does not fall very far. A climbing partner typically applies friction at the other end of the rope whenever the climber is not moving, and removing the friction from the rope whenever the climber needs more rope to continue climbing.The term "belay" also means the place where the belayer is anchored; this is typically a ledge, but may be a hanging belay, where the belayer is suspended from protection in the rock, or in our case the wooden platform [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belaying ].
Before each of the eight leaps, Mary or Sarah would explain what to do, and then the guide would go first with her leap — this served both to demonstrate and to have the guide at the end of the zip line.

The guide at the beginning of the zip line would wait for the guide at the other end to yell “Clear”, and then confirm it with a “clear” — and then I/Sarah would jump.
The First Leap

We rode the Sunapee Ski lift to South Peak to our first platform. We then climbed about fifteen feet on a rope ladder up the hillside platform. Now came the moment I was there for — the zip line leap.

I must confess my stomach was tight for this first jump — and I was sweating with nervousness and anxious anticipation. I looked downhill at the next platform hundreds of feet away, and thought, “What am I doing here?” I had all kinds of reservations as to whether I “really really” wanted to jump from this height. Would the harness hold me? Was I strong enough to hold on to the harness strap (no worry here as the harness cable strap was simply to give me “confidence.”)

My first jump was here. I was all clicked to the cable, and Maratha said, “OK Steve, you can jump.” I looked at Martha to be doubly positive I heard her correctly, and asked, “Is it OK to jump?” [It never hurts to be absolutely certainly about this.]

You have to believe in the equipment and in your guides!! The adrenaline rush came and the commitment was there. I Leaped!!! The harness held and I was flying down the cable with an eagle’s view of Mount Sunapee and Lake Sunapee. It was a thrill!!
