Large Lombardy removal

[RC0]

A large Lombardy removal today. 90km winds had been forecast but fortunately it turned out little less. A lot more difficult to get your sense of balance, movement and direction when the tree’s being blown all over the place like that.

 

I used the logger’s choker for speed and had a balancer hooked on if I needed it

 

The lower part was left as a wildlife snag so we were away for mid-day. 40t crane, a good op but who wouldn’t use radios for some reason....no matter it still worked out pretty well.

Man that's one hell of a Lombardy. Excellent Pics but reckon I'd be wanting a nice blue sky, no wind and plenty of sun for that job.
