Ep 14. Lost In The Forest II

In Treehouse Masters season 6 episode 14 titled "Lost in the Forest II," Pete Nelson and his team are on a mission to build a treehouse for a couple who has always dreamed of having a peaceful escape in the forest. The couple owns ten acres of land and have specifically asked for a treehouse that merges with the surroundings without drawing much attention.

The episode starts with Pete and his team scouting the land to find the perfect location for the treehouse. They come across a towering fir tree that has been standing tall for over a hundred years and decides that this would be perfect for their project. They also find a nearby tree that would act as an anchoring point for the bridge that will lead to the treehouse.

The team starts by hoisting up a large beam to the first level of the treehouse that will act as the foundation for the rest of the structure. The treehouse is being built in two levels, so the team divides themselves to work on two different tasks simultaneously. One team starts working on the support beams for the second level, while the other starts building the bridge that leads to the treehouse.

The second level of the treehouse is supported by four massive pine trees, and the team has to make sure that all the angles are perfect to ensure the treehouse's stability. Pete's signature touch, a round window, is also added to the treehouse to provide a panoramic view of the surrounding forest.

As the team starts building the bridge that will lead to the treehouse, they run into a problem. The anchoring point for the bridge that they had initially picked isn't strong enough to hold the weight of the bridge. They have to figure out a new anchoring point, and after hours of discussion, they finally find a new spot that would work. The team has to improvise and come up with a new design for the bridge, but they manage to pull it off.

The final touches are added to the treehouse, and the team sets up a zipline that would take the owners from the treehouse to the ground in under twenty seconds. The final result is a stunning treehouse that is hidden amongst the trees, and the couple is overjoyed with the finished product.

In summary, Treehouse Masters season 6, episode 14, "Lost in the Forest II," showcases Pete Nelson and his team's ability to build a treehouse in a challenging location while still incorporating their signature designs. The episode provides insight into the process of building a treehouse, from scouting locations to the final touches. It is an entertaining episode for anyone interested in architecture, design, and construction.
