its all a bit Pythonesque..and the rescuers rescuer, and the rescuers rescuers rescuer and the.....!

 

I would say;

1. ALWAYS have a ladder on site, in place, ready to put in the tree whilst work is in progress.

2.he climber should always maintain rope discipline..yes it is a pain in the arris pulling that 45m rope through..but can you get yourself out of the tree 'one handed'?.

3.Of course there should be aerial rescue in place...but I know lots of people don't have it all the time...and if they do, when was the last time the 'rescuer' actually climbed a tree let alone performed one of the rescue techniques?

 

The fact is, if you need someone to get you out of the tree and that person is not a regular climber, who is ready to climb and capable of performing the rescue under extreme stress...you are in very deep brown stuff....
