MOUNTAIN VIEW, AR-Tucked away in the tree tops of Northern Central Arkansas, Loco Ropes lives up to its name.
They say I'll only do that when Pigs Fly, and I say I guess they fly because you want to do the impossible thing, said owner Judy Cox.
She said it's a dream she's been working on for three years. She was first inspired to build the course when she saw kids hanging out in a parking lot without anything to do. Now, they are one of a handful of zip line courses. They are unique in that they cater to ages 4 to 79.
Cox said, You hear that kid coming through the trees and they say, 'Ah that was awesome!' You know it just does your heart good.
There are more than 30 obstacles that test your balance, teamwork, and strength. They are broken up by difficulty starting at beginners, intermediate, and then advanced. It is home to a variety of activities including Tarzan ropes, swinging blanks, rope bridges, and a climbing wall.
Facilitator Dru Edmonds said, It's really fun to see people challenge themselves and have a good time in the trees.
Edmonds along with two other instructors took the Channel 7 crew through the safety demo. He explained they use a system of pulleys, trolleys, and clips so the harness is always connected to a line.
Throughout the course you are forced to flex your brain, muscles, and most importantly confidence.

Loco Ropes @ the Ozark Folk Center State Park
Loco Ropes is beginning construction of its state of the art high-wire forest adventure at the Ozark Folk Center State Park! Loco Ropes is creating three high-wire forest adventure courses and tower zip line thrill rides for an outdoor experience your friends and family will never forget.
The lush hills, unique rock features, and diversity of tree species found in Mountain View, Arkansas make it the perfect setting for Loco Ropes' tree-top challenge course. With over 30 elements spanning from tree to tree high above the forest floor, as well as dual 300 foot zip lines, guests will find ample opportunity to experience the natural beauty of Arkansas' prized Ozark region.
The canopy courses, dubbed Loco Lines, will vary in their level of difficulty. Loco Line 1 is suitable for all levels of experience, though not to be a mild introduction to high-wire forest adventure. The gliding, continuous belay system to be utilized on Loco Line 1 is exceptionally user-friendly, allowing guests to focus on the task at hand -- having fun!
Loco Lines 2 and 3 will present increasing levels of challenge to the more adventurous. These elements will test guests' agility, stamina, and endurance. The hands-on belay system on Loco Lines 2 and 3 will provide users with an exciting sense of accomplishment.
Each of the three Loco Lines will provide a variety of elements crafted to create the perfect balance of challenge and excitement.
The dual 300 foot zip lines, called the Flying Pig, named after the historic locomotive, will be an all-ages attraction. Guests will take off from atop a 30 foot tower, fly across a deep ravine, and back to the tower's top! The innovative mechanism that allows guests to zip back up to the tower creates a great opportunity to take in the lush scenery they may have missed on their zip down.
