Another thing I forgot which may be useful for next year is that they left a little line in the tree last year, which made it very easy for Alex to haul the heavier line up to climb the tree; I think he just fastened the little line behind the tree so it will be there for next year.

I see a rope in the South tree.
Somewhere in the jungle there's a climber - good catch, CC!

I'm going to run a recalibration on the North cam - it will swing around a bit.
Added -
That worked as I'd hoped. It helps the cam find its "home" position after it's been shaken or jostled a bit (which happens during the cleaning process) - and now the presets are working as expected, making it easier for me to find the South cam tree if I move away to check something else.

Almost there!
Looks a bit trickier without a nice nest to stand on!
Making a sling to sit on and fastening safety ropes.
