Steep ol winching job

[gibbon]

Feels like we've been on this job forever. 20 something Lawson Cypress were at the bottom of this steep feild. We had to fell them then winch them upto 200m across the bank with a winch tractor without letting them slide into the gardens directly behind.

 

Next they have to be spun around then winched down another slope, processed and taken out between 2 gate posts.

 

Thankfully I've done my bit there, the lads should be finished up by Friday

Burn on site?

The site is right in the middle of a residential area and most of them will be retired, there no way we could pull that off without really upsetting the natives.
