A couple of my buddies built a swing near Raintree Subdivision last summer. It was huge. I estimate it was about 30 ft high at the release point.

This was not smart. One of the guys that built it hit pretty hard on one jump, and it ruptured his spleen. He was in the hospitlal for a few days afterward. I'm not making this up.

I'm not sure if the swing is still there because we never went back. If you want to find out, go to Raintree by boat. When you arrive at Raintree, turn left and look along the bank on your left. You will see the clearing and the swing, or what's left of if.
