Climbing poles

Two of the most visible sites on the Ingliston skyline are the 100ft climbing poles in the countryside area. They are used during the show for demonstrations and competitions of pole climbing and lumberjack skills. The poles that had stood for the last seven years were starting to deteriorate so last month they were replaced with two Douglas Fir trees from Kirkennan Forest near Castle Douglas. Last month Dougie was at Ingliston to see the new poles being erected.
