Nice work mate, thanks for sharing

[Erik]

Thanks Steve. I appreciate it.

Can someone please give me a step by step idiots guide to embedding vids from youtube?

Just copy and paste it into the reply, it should automatically embed it.  Sometimes if you click submit straight after posting the link it wont embed it.
Also some links randomly just don't embed, might be the type of youtube link to pick

Little 160 ft Redwood removal. We removed 3 trees, which will be milled to rebuilt a redwood bridge for a small off-the-grid community.

Just some simple, old-school tree work from Northern California.

Video info says 170 to 175 feet ... so about 10  feet taller than the world's tallest maple tree. Makes for a fun comparison.

Fun top and drop in the 210 ft - 215 range. 

The logs have been milled and the lumber is awful nice.

This parcel has some big timber on it. Some of the logs on this windfall fought us all the way

Take it you don't like hard hats ?

[Erik]

I wear em' when I have too (very rarely climb with one). I have a different view on PPE and safety than most. Not for everybody, but it has worked for me for a very long time.

Who needs a hardhat when your doing stupid stuff like this?  A Hap Johnson "coffee break" photo, standing on top of a 130-135 ft Redwood spar after blowin' 100-110 ft top. 30-35 years ago when I still had hair.
