Did you do it all with the picker?

Yeh. Annoyed as it didn't arrive until 10 yesterday, so lost a couple of hours. Otherwise the stem would have been down by ceasework today.

 

The big extra leaders were a pain, there were about ten all in. Once the surrounding branches were out I could fell them out separately. Then get to the main stem.

 

I've only been climbing a year now. I reckon I would have added at least another day if climbing.

Went back to grind/dig root plates out from trees felled Tue.

Both trees directly on top of main sewer pipes, so whole root plates had to be dug out to install new services. Nice easy day on the levers:biggrin:
