So here in Sunny and Warm Florida, it is supposed to hit the 20s Monday night and stay that way for 8+ hours.

A few years ago, I was able to put a mister head on a hose and get it up into a tree so it would create awesome iceicles and a little "snow" around the base of the tree. Used a 20' piece of bamboo, was able to get the hose head up to the top w/ no problem.

Still have the tree, but it is much taller now. Tried last night and couldn't get teh hose up much higher than 20' - bamboo bent over too much. And, the hose head I was using wasn't producing a mist.

So... ideas on how I can get a mist of water going 35-40' up in a tree.

Tree is too thin for my fat ass to climb, I don't have or want a cherry picker or a ladder tall enough to do it.

I'm thinking 8' sections of small diameter PVC, put a hook on the top piece to keep putting it on a branch as I go up more. Put a piece up, connect the next one using a slip joint and pvc glue, and on and on and on. Mister will be a head from an in-ground watering system. Water fed from my well pump, so pressure isn't an issue especially with a skinny water column

Will this work? Got a better way? The kids really enjoyed it last time I did it, I'd like to do it again for them. Would like to keep budget under $75. Keeping the pipe system up in the tree all year is no issue for me

Thanks!
