If your disc enters the jungle: you may throw from the jungle if the disc is located. Or you may take a one stroke penalty and play 2 meters from point of entry that does not grant an advantageous position towards the basket.
If your disc comes to rest in a tree: you will play your throw directly below the location of the disc without penalty.
