Thats a very high percentage Steve! You must be based further south where the beech is historically native. Here in Shropshire, although beech has happily naturalised all the real biggies where probably planted. Therefore they don't really crop up in my schedule any more or less than oak, ash or big conifer. Those plantings are often in public spaces however.

The joy of beech can be its size. I've found one on the private country estate where I live and intend to climb it soon just for fun. She's a bute:D

Some basic zipline pics taken whilst dimantling quite a tall ash over delicate property. No tandem pulley, rigging plate or haulback line required, just a guy on the end of the rope who knows when to dump the load!
