As John said, he builds aerial walkways in various parts of the world, for ecotourists and canopy researchers. He has built some of them in Peru and goes there, usually in September to inspect and repair them.
Here's a link to his web site Canopy Construction Associates
Next summer, he may be bringing a small group of folks who are interested in spending some time in the Amazon. This would include birders, herpetologists, botanists etc. The idea would be to spend several days in one place and really get to know it. If he does I will go too.
I realize that saying I've "only" been to Peru once is still saying a lot!
OT: I' have sweared canopy were built by native people..
Nice frog! In the 1st Tindomul's photo, it looks like Spiderman, when he "crouches" (?)
Many canopy systems are built by local people. Bart's group has developed some expertise, particularly for researchers. More and more now he consults rather than carrying out the construction.
He's a 62 year old little boy who never stopped climbing trees!
