A couple of pics nicked from screeshots of a go pro vid I made.

 

Double pine dismantle in Oslo. Stipped and topped the first tree on fence line, rigged the second in about 5 or 6 pieces as there was decking, sandpit and nice landscaping below.

It wasn't too sappy Drew. Maybe due to the temps as it hasn't properly warmed up yet. I think the air temp was about 5.-7 degrees. I am sure the sap will start once it gets warmer.

Quite a big tree for just two of us on the job. A ton of limbs, up to 6in and 20 ft over the first half, then becoming smaller there after. Ziplined nearly all so to enable to keep the limbs whole and get them closer to the chipper. I had to get down 3 times to help chip and sort out, but it worked out as one guy trying to chip and run the line would've been way too slow. Was able to fall a good sized log towards the end which saved a lot of time. Some big jobs ahead in the coming weeks.

Oak RJ from today. Bit of a tricky one. Lots of bendy poles and almost half the canopy over a fragile roof.

 

Originally the client wanted it cut back completely off building but that would have needed to remove at least 50% or the canopy. They may aswell have felled it.

 

Client decided to go for a total reductions instead. 2 climbers in tree and we removed about 2 metres of the top and sides. Quite a bit of fiddly rigging involved over the roof but all done and nothing broken.
