Brilliance, I would not want to pay for all that rigging kit mind!

[Ross Beaumont]

i would have felled it

Did the climber have to spike up the other 3 trees to put the rigging systems in and then remove them? Interesting and certainly less physical stress for the climber doing it in large lumps like that.

I'd rather use a 2 rope system and dismantle in smaller pieces where the sections move away directly they've been cut, but still under control.

it looks like they would have used floating anchor points on the lowering blocks...,

 

but there ways of climbing trees without spikes.....

Just watched the vid on a screen big enough to read the text. Wow. That is pretty good. Can't see what all the fuss over some moss and ferns though. Surely if all the plants are living in their natural environment they suffer a little buffeting from a bit of deadwood. If they were that precious they should have bagged the sawdust.

I think its a special place for the aborigines, where spirits are thought to be in the plants and things, so great care is taken not to damage anything ( we "the whites" have done enough damage over the years, so I applaud their efforts)
