North Country Mule? Our full mouthed ryland had quads just over a week ago and yours wins hands down! :)

Now what are you going to do with it?

I'm gonna leave it there and forget about it. Actually this was not my job, was just helping out a fellow tree guy. I believe the client is going to deal with it himself, it was actually his tirfor we were using. All he wanted was it out of the ground.

Therein lies the rub with winching stumps out.

I'd be for grinding but grinders are in short supply in my hood. Just never caught on I suppose. I suppose you could say it's a cultural thing....

Still, I'd drive an hour to get one before I'd dig that out!

Took us around 4 hours, but we weren't giving it anything like wellie, as my pal was a bit poorly. Probably two hours of proper work for two vigorous men.

 

Client will be treated fairly though, as always.

 

I just love Tirfors. Love everything about them. It's bordering on a fetish... If anyone has a link to Simon Foure and the history of the development of the Tirfor please send it my way.

Threaded the needle with this one. Had to stand on wedges driven into a high stump to get around the back of it.

 

I am looking pleased because I had to ditch the saw and flee when it started to go.The saw made it out ok.

 

I couldnt climb these oldies because the clients wanted the understory as a screen and the neighbours wanted more sun. Felling big trees through understory on a rocky face above the sea is a mugs game. But it does make you feel alive.
