My fear isn' t what is going to " get" me as I' m walking in or out. It is losing my footing while climbing into or out of the relatively unknown tree in the dark without my saftey strap attached. I really don' t want to fall out of a tree.

I' ll often climb out of the tree while there is still enough light to see and find a spot on the ground for the last 10-15 minutes.
