Would you climb this?

[greengrafter]

Yes mate,

 

Anchor in the other tree, it looks like if it does go it will only get hung up in the that one anyway.

 

Wham Bam!

Always nice to see someone reading the whole thread....

[greengrafter]

Sorry! 1st post did'nt see the other pages!........dow!

Just filled in the bit at the bottom.

[Mark Bolam]

You'd still have climbed it though, wouldn't you mate?

 

Like your style!

[RPA]

Glad it went well for you.

 

Sounds like it was a single climber job?

 

Don't really want to come across like a miserable git but if it was make sure you are fully aware of the 'what ifs' (do a risk assessment - even a mental one). It could have cost you a lot more than it was worth.

[greengrafter]

Probs, but not for 150 quid though!

[Arbocop]

Dont climb it.

 

its only a tree and you will not get any extra prais for risking your neck.

 

I know many people will chance there arm and get away with it, but its just not worth it, you say you have never doe any thing ike this befor, so id utilse pole saws, winches and move or sacrifice the targets.

 

I suppose that comes a bt from being an expert witness in a few cases of death and seriuse ijuries,.

 

cheers

He did, and did and it was worth it in the end.

Yeah it was all done safe and sound and I had a few plans just incase it went pear-shaped!

[Ty Korrigan]

To your credit mate, it looks bigger in the images of you climbing it.

Well done.
