Bit more of the same from the site up Yarrow Valley, there all week felling Ash and really enjoying it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Was really humid with the heat today so a team dip of the skinny variety in St Mary's Loch on way back to base was called for!

 

 

That winch isn’t listening to any excuses.

No it's a scary bit of kit. More a forestry winch really, not ideal for what we're using it for but we don't need it out very often. It's so quick and aggressive it's difficult to get tension on before a pull but once you start pulling in anger it's over pretty quickly.

Clearing a waterway of some ash dieback stuff in the drink.

Some assisted felling as well but didn’t film that.

 

Avant making the impossible easy.

Connie death fest with big help from the mighty Worky Quad, 19 60 footers, previously topped at 20’, so multi-stemmed, dead middle shitbags.

All assisted fells.

Client kept the timber, 14 ‘full to the brim’ loads of chip, we aren’t in ULEZ down here.

2 full loads of dust and rakings, again mainly handled with the WQ.

 

3 days.

 

Just in, ready for my second beer now, had my first one on the way to the yard, didn’t touch the sides.

Hedge removal.

We are eschewing grinding after we found out we could do this.
