This year the North American Comp is in Salt Lake City, Utah. I'm going to be defending my title as the North American champ from last year! I'll do my best to post some photos over the weekend.

The North American Tree Climbing Championship (NATCC) provides a competitive but educational opportunity for working arborists in North America to demonstrate and exchange new climbing techniques and equipment, as well as safe work practices. The NATCC also increases the interaction between various firms, ISA North American chapters and members, and provides positive public exposure for the profession in that region of the world.

The winners of this event are sent to represent North America at the International World Championship held prior to the ISA Annual Conference.
