Monopole with fake tree

[prsmith777]

I live in a pine forest and there a plenty of cell towers that look like pine trees.

I was wondering if there are any smaller versions for sale for residential use, say 10-15 feet. No luck Googling.

I'd like to use them to hide point to point wifi and cameras in the yard.

I guess the other option would be to just attach the hardward directly to the trees, but not sure if that is a good idea.

Many folks here have attached equipment to trees without much issue. Need to account for growth, etc. if the trees are still growing taller.

That's a hell of a lot cheaper. Good to know. I'll probably go this route.

I probably need to put at least one pole out there for the wifi antenna and a weather proof box for the POE and switch. I can then run the cat5/6 to the trees for the cameras
