Above Ground Mini Vertical Workshop Photos

This workshop took place on Saturday May 13, 2000. Thank you to Bill Greenwald who led the workshop, put up with all of our questions and was very patient. If you ever get the chance to meet Bill, you will find he is a class guy, Thank You. Attending the workshop were Jamie Winner, Jay Pittenger, Brent Kollmar and myself. We spent the first part of the day practicing technique in a tree and the second half dropping a pit in Monroe County. It was a great time and we learned much. Here are the photos, enjoy!

Please be patient, the pics will take a moment to load. Click on any picture to view a larger image.
