Swing At the End of the World

 

 

Deep in the Ecuadorian wilderness there is a seismic monitoring station.  It is formally known as Casa del Arbol  (aka  The Tree House).  It is a simple one room shack made of wood to observe Mt. Tungurahua (Ecuador) which is an active volcano in the area.  The main attraction is a simple swing hanging from a skinny tree branch for anyone to enjoy.   With no safety measures or equipment of any kind,  adults and even children can go for a swing over a deep and dangerous canyon.
