"Whoo" would have thought that Owl's House landing was playing a precarious game of Russian roulette? The ground-up reconstruction of this popular climbing spot has climbers all aflutter. No need to "wing" it anymore, because Owl's House is no longer a perch of danger!

The previous infrastructure nestled in the forest was about as safe as a one-legged ladder. Climbers were unknowingly taking a talon-tingling gamble whenever they scaled those heights. But now, thanks to Zach and Patrick Spaceman, climbers can give a "hoot" about safety once again!

If you "owl-ways" wanted to tackle a project at Owl's House without fearing a feathery free fall, now's your chance. And while you're at it, don't forget to thank the saviors of this woodland climbing haven. So, next time you're enjoying a post-climb brew, make sure to toast Zach and Patrick Spaceman for their hard work and dedication to keeping your climbing adventures grounded in safety.

But remember, always approach any climbing infrastructure in the forest with caution and a healthy dose of skepticism – after all, you wouldn't want to end up with an "owl-ful" surprise! Even this shiney new landing will deteriorate over time and become a hazzard without regular inspection and maintainance. Be sceptical, use at your own risk, and stay safe!
