Hello, I am faced with a line of 26 troublesome poplars on the bank of a fishing lake. The spec is to dead wood and remove some of the branches to reduce the risk for the fishermen below. Also to dismantle a few which have cavities or more severe damage. The owners have spent days clearing deadwood and broken branches which have fallen into the lake over the Winter. The drop zone is the path along the bank. Behind is a wilderness of wetland scrub and dragons in which I am sure no-one will bother if material is dropped there. The other side is the lake itself. Access is limited and simply felling into the lake is not an option. The majority of material to be removed is over the lake itself and some of these branches are impossible long and thin. What methods and kit might be usefull in rigging down these branches and bringing them safely onto the bank? I am thinking that a winch such as the GRCS could be used with a tip tie and a second pulley on a neighbouring tree with rope butt tied with a simple bollard. I'm here to be educated so I'm all ears and eyes. Cheers Ty
