Most accessible public land in the US allows you to camp in any one spot for a max of 14 days and forbids you from doing stuff like hammering a bunch of nails into a tree that will likely end up in a sawmill. Either this dude privately owns a nice big tract of undeveloped forest (Actually possible, 10 acres costs less than a Maserati in some places) or some BLM ranger is gonna be real pissed.
I know a lot of people make an effort to use ropes instead of nails for the initial framework so that you don’t nail anything to the tree. With that in mind, if you’re good at it, you can legally build a pretty cool treehouse in a short while in a public forest, and just move it to a different tree within 14 days.
Yeah I think that would actually be completely legal, because I know there are campers who make spiderweb-style treenets for camping off the ground. Same concept: Lots of ropes and nothing permanently secured to the tree.
10 acres is also a lot more than you need for a treehouse! UK here, smaller woodland you could get for under £50k. Unfortunately you can’t legally live in it, I would rather be doing that instead of paying a mortgage.

I read that as black lives matter-ranger. I now learned that it stands for bureau of land management.
I love that this comment gets made every time I see the Bureau of Land Management mentioned somewhere.
Guess it was my turn as part of the lucky 10000

Yeah panel 5 just made me feel like he was trekking a bit with that wagon, so 10 acres sounded like a good guess for a brief trek.
True, though not all woodland is accessible by road
Nice to know that I shouldn’t try to identify with the harmless man just trying to make his own fun.
