half-wave dipole in the forest

i live in a neighborhood where the sight of a half-wave dipole would
cause a riot. however, a portion of my property is heavily wooded.
i could easily hide even a 160m half-wave among the branches and leaves,
leaving it invisible. is this practical? risky? caveat: i'm still
studying for my technician's license so go easy on me :-).
