100ft Beech trees speedlined

[Steve Bullman]

This job took 6 days all in all at a nice relaxed pace. Spec was to deadwood and reduce the weight back on the moat side. Obvious hazard was the powerlines, not so much of a hazard as a hinderance as it limited the angle we could set the speedline at.

Trees were ranged from 90-100ft

excellent steve, i love a speed line, mine are a bit more basic than yours though lol, did you manage to keep your spare rope free of snags as it zipped away or did it get hung up at all

by spare rope i assume you mean the retrieval line? its an old nylon rock climbing rope, doesnt snag very easily, so luckily no.
