Here is pictures of a job we did on Wednesday. The pics turned out kind of dark as they were in super bright sun and on the first picture the sun was a little to the front of me and in the second pic the scene was in the shadow of the building. It was some kind of pine and was located at a restaurant on a very busy road with traffic backed up by us most of the time. The tree was about 15' taller than my bucket goes and I blocked down the top and the trunk until I got down close enough to the ground that I could let the chunks drop without hurting something. Also I had to rig down most of the branches as the drop zone was quite small. It took us 4 hours.

YES - PFD - sort of like PPE for a river - but with different letters - Personal Floation device (a life jacket). pictures included (mine is orange and black)- and don't say people on here don't wear spandex and helmets. here is proof. . . .



enjoy the trees you climb

Oh, of course, PFD!! Would never have guessed that one! Take you a while to get here in that, lol. Think I'd want a motor attached to it!!
