Power Line Map

If you've run out of options in Perfect Trees, this line provides some solitude. Follow the skintrack until you find a chute cut in the trees on your left. It was cut for power lines back in the day, but they were never installed. It's less of an approach, and still really good. Just head into the trees about halfway out to Perfect Trees. Keep an eye out for the skintrack at the bottom.
