Neat!

Setting the guys from the tree using a throw line. First time I've had a throwline cube in the tree! The pink lines are the planned route for the guy lines.

The lines from the top and then the set up at the ground.

 

The beech trees are now effectivley ground anchors for the poplar

Got six ropes in the tree!! Might be a personal best. Would have been seven if I had used a haul back rope for the rigging line but i used the tail of my climb line instead.

[Peter]

Looks like a good days poplar killing. Was there no way of getting any more ropes in the tree?

[Rupe]
