is important to exercise the legs by pushing against the tree or doing other forms of continuous leg exercises to avoid blood pool-
ing while being suspended. Varying degrees of physical fitness may require different plans for self-recovery/escape the effects of
prolonged suspension. Have a personal plan and practice it in the presence of a responsible adult before leaving the ground. No
one escape/rescue plan will work for every hunter, on every tree, in every circumstance. Only you can determine the best self-

implement your practiced rescue, relief and recovery plan. Hunt from the ground when a self-recovery /escape ability is absent.
