General Tree pics

Looked at a big lombardy removal this evening....the photo shows it at the base but what you cant see is another huge part to it just behind me on the left. Terrible spot at the back/borderline of two properties. Whopping big top, multi-stemmed thing about 110-20ft, will all have to be rigged which is quite the task....but the real hard work is in that lower portion which will have to be blocked and ripped into 4 perhaps and then pushed off, such is the tight drop zone.

 

Not sure if it'll come off just yet as the city want it retained....meanwhile the residents are pretty much terrified of it. We bid it (both parts) for 6 days for 4 workers.

I can't quite see what's going on there Reg, is it twin stemmed?

 

You're gonna need a bigger flipline....

Above my head, no not really. just a series of massive leads which break off from the main stem on the way up. Its almost like a multi-top but the leads dont all start from a single point, more all over the first 30ft yet seemingly reach the same height up top. Not a tree-surgeon friendly shape really.

Oh dear. I do hope you remembered to take your block driver out there with you!
