I am interested in joining you. Please let me know. I am not a computer fan and i hope you got this message. I am new to this site but not to living outside. Wish to make tree living a reality with sweat! hit me back i could bring my savings if this a serous endeavorer. Maybe we could even meet up at rainbow in one month in Washington state. Also it may be a good idea to build a few structures in the ground for winters sake. This may be our most difficult time. In any case i love this site and its sweet to meet up with like minded people! I was beginning to believe most come out the mold pre-programed with words like "Clean Coal"--I live in Tennessee---nuff said. Hit me back im serious and you sound like you have more experience than me when it comes to sustainable living.

Hit me back
-Matt

Funny, my buddy and I built a tree house squat in 2006 in Whistler. Made it through the Olympics and just keeps getting better. We used chloroplast for walls (waterproof and very light, mildew resistant also). The trick is to make the roof clear! We used Palruf, it is a clear ridged plastic. No mold, and you have natural light all day long. We made a high loft quilt that hooks onto the ceiling at night and keeps it nice and warm in the winter. We have a small wood stove that keeps the place nice and toasty. In a couple weeks we are going to have an outdoor movie night. I'm bringing a projector and laptop, from the side deck we will project the movie between two trees on a white tarp (bungied between). Trick is to have a water source near by and to stock pile wood. No one has found it yet. Always open and ready to be used. We even have a tree house sign in book if you do happen to find it. Our hope is that if it is found it will be found by respectful people. As my buddy says, "animals" don't walk. They drive up light a fire, leave garbage and leave. You can't drive up. We wanted something fairly accessible, no ferries!

Do we get any hints as to where it is? :D I'm up on the sunshine coast for winter and my buddy and i are building kayaks to get around. Maybe we'll come through and say hi.

Hey, some people and i are creating a self-sustaining society and need people with skills to help out. If you have some skills and are interested in a work trade for food and shelter (that you build yourself with assistance and materials) send me a message.
