| Mohawk Walk | |||||
 |
The Mohawk Walk consists of five sections
of tautly strung cable, with each successive section longer than
the one prior. The challenge is for the whole group to traverse the entire length of the series of cables without falling or stepping off. This activity is also designed to encourage the development of key life skills such as teamwork, communication and leadership among the group. |
 |
|||
| Nitro Crossing | |||||
| A spliced loop rope swing is
suspended from a cable between a small platform and the starting
point. The basic problem is to obtain the rope using only the resources found within the group and then get the whole group across the area between the starting point and the platform, without touching the ground, and onto the platform. There are different variations to this activity that can be implemented depending on the group requirements. |
 |
||||
| Obstacle Course | |||||
 |
 |
The Obstacle Course consists of 11
separate obstacles of varying difficulty. Participants can be timed as they make their way around the course, then aim to beat their time on their second attempt. |
|||
| Spider's Web | |||||
 |
The Spider's Web
consists of a prefabricated web strung between two posts 3-4
metres apart made up of 10-15 open web sections. The task is to pass each member of the group through a separate web opening without letting any part of their body touch the web. Once a member uses an opening, that section is closed to further passage. If a participant touches the web during the process, the person being passed must return to the beginning side and the section they went through remains closed. This is another activity specifically designed to encourage the development of key life skills such as teamwork, communication and leadership among the group. |
||||
| Tension Traverse | |||||
|
A single cable is strung tautly between a
tree and a support post. A long rope is attached to a point at a height above the start of the foot cable to provide a tensioned support to use while the participant traverses the foot cable. The aim is to traverse as far along the taut foot cable as possible without falling off. Spotters are encouraged to stand either side of the participant for safety support. |
 |
||||
| Wild Woosey | |||||
 |
Two tautly
strung cables, close to the ground and starting at the same
point, progress outwards to end points approximately 3-4 metres
apart. Two participants (one per cable) walk the diverging cables, while maintaining physical contact, to a point where they can no longer continue or they reach the support posts. |
