One thing I look for in a tree is a limb that is at the height I want to climb to that I can have the strap on my harness go over as I tightened it to the tree. There is no way, if I fall, the strap will slide down the tree. This past weekend I climbed a tree that had a smaller tree growing beside it and at about 25 feet up, that smaller tree had a fork in it that brought it up against the tree I was in. I ran my strap around my tree and through the fork of the other tree.
