Langford, Fir removal

[RC0]

A good sized Douglas fir removal from yesterday.

Had some help from Scot in the Bucket over the first 50 ft, as lots of long 30ft + limbs....so it was easy for him to sweep around hacking the ends off where he could.

 

Pretty much all the limbs on the tree had to be rigged. I used a 220 ft rigging line until we ran out of length, and then switched to the zip-line for the last 30ft of which the limbs were much shorter anyway.

 

The pic of the zipline was taken from the bucket while starting another tree on that site.

 

That’s Jared from the recent vids making the falling cut.

Long day, lots of wind, didn’t leave the site till 7. Thanks

GREAT great pictures Reg...and interesting to see you using a Sugi hara bar..the falling tree picture looks great as the trunk peels away from the stump and then the hinge shot:thumbup: Big fan of your work Reg!

Nice work. Nice hinge jared.

 

Did you have time to film it Reg? It sounded a balls out day so understand if you didn't get footage. Pics are great.

Great pics, Reg.

 

I really wonder what good a bucket truck is out that way.

 

Curious about wood. What does Scotty Tree do with all the larger limb wood and trunk wood.
