Sectional felling course pictures

[Mike Hill]

Here are some pictures from a sectional felling course I helped staff.The course was run by Svein Ringheim and was over one week in a Alpine town called Voss in western Norway.The climbers that attended had a broad range of experiance and the GCRS and a Norwegian produced lowering device similiar to the Hobbs were used side by side.

Nice to see replacement trees already in place

There were three students to a staffer for the days I was there helping with the large tree felling.One staff in the tree with the climber and students on the ground.Good fun and eager to do it again.
