I would have sat down and scooted across since I am afraid of heights even just a few feet in the air and I get all wobbly. Lovely hike, those old growth trees are so wonderful!

I would never try them now. We have a few in town where a tree has fallen across the creek. I used to cross on them. Not anymore.
