Get a far bigger crane stand along way back not to damage edges etc and lift all out in one go

It would have to be far bigger.. as nearest road 170m away.

Silliest idea yet - break the crown down and leave the lot where it is for habitat.

I could get the waste off walking it over the log.. I tried to sell leaving the log as a bridge, we could have cut steps into it and everything.. Unfortunately the island is not owned by the tree owner and they want the tree gone..

Would shear legs work here?

 A matador would lift that out of there if there was enough access.

Thats what I was thinking. process the crown back to as close to the edge of the bank as possible, then lift the crown end and drag the butt end .

Or process the tree down to a clean log, jack up both ends enough to get planks underneath, to span the stream, and acrow-prop the planks in the stream. Then pull out, should slide over the planks.
