This year the treehouse conference will be in Washington state. It will feature presentations by experts on how, why, what materials to use, which structures are feasible, contracting issues, permitting, low-impact tree protection methods, retrofitting aging structures, and impacts of drilling...

Is the Yachats Forest Service facility hosting ACRT arboriculture classes?

Graeme McMahon visited Seattle in 2002 for the ISA conference. We invited him to climb the 10' Bogachiel Spruce, in the Olympic Rainforest, as a benefit for the TREE Fund scholarship charity. CBS TV sent a film crew, and a 9 minute story appeared on 60 Minutes. There are short snippets showing...

The lengths a photographer will go to, to get the shot. The resolution is still pretty good, even though it's been compressed on this website. It would be nice to hear what camera and mode you are shooting in.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Smithsonian Institution during the ISA conference in Washington DC the last week of July, first week of August, 2017. The plaque has arrived at the museum. We'll have to have a cup of coffee and get caught up on what's been happening since Facebook took...

Hap Arnold was in a movie called "Spar Tree". It was offered for sale on VHS tape by the PNW-ISA website. Julian Dunster was the lead on the effort to get the rights to distribute the film. Guess its time to digitize it & put it up on Youtube. inquire at: [email protected] More discussion at...

Howdy, Just got on this thread & wanted to add a few points distinguishing large Stihl saws from regular-duty equipment. The large Husqvarna saws are not discussed here, since they're shaped like sewing machines. (Uh-oh, I may have lost a few with that wise-crack). The ergonomics of extra...

Just spooled some more video from that era. The scouting trip for locations for the Bogachiel Spruce climb is also online.

The view of the arrow trailing a blur of fishing line reeling off the spool & disappearing over the fork at the top of it's arc is superior to the ability to see a small throwbag in flight launched by a slingshot. The 'preference' is the security of knowing if the line is over a solid crotch...

Here's a video Jerry shot of the process of setting a line with a crossbow in a 15' diameter redwood tree. The Reynolds Triple redwood is actually 2 trees about 6 feet apart. One of them is 10' diameter, the other is 15' diameter, but splits into 2 trunks just above head height. <iframe...

I was a technician doing the belaying on the Speed Climb event. It is very educational having 30 guys & gals go thru the station one right after the other. Here's a video of Robert Bundy beginning his Masters Challenge climb. Enjoy ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=midZypp5NPY

Hey Bob, Glad the gang made it out to redwood country. Nice of you to offer to set the line for Fronds. Can you give a rundown of the Arboriculture degree program offered at your day job at MSU-Bottineau, North Dakota-? http://www.msub.edu/demo/pdf/arboricultureurbanforestry.pdfI was intrigued...

Glad to have more people up in the Giant Spruce at Jughandle Creek. It was a real priviledge to climb that tree with you guys, way back when. If there had been a climbibng log, it would have had a number of treehousers on the registry. Believe it or not,, I'm typing this at the Bourbon...

Hey, I'll be out visiting after a relatives wedding around Memorial Day. What is there to see in the neighborhood? Any good trees left after all the wind/water?

Is that near Crater Lake? Hey, can you please post the Google Earth coordinates? Thanx. http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?city=BUTTE+FALLS&state=OR&address=415+Broad+St&country=us&zoom=8

Ya know the ol website is going downhill when the off topic chit chat by the moderators need moderating. I guess that's why there are other websites. To get back on track, ere's another shot of Eli's tree, taken by another good ol boy, Rbtree.

Don't fergit this shot of Eli. Wow, if we had all the duplicate threads cross referenced, there's room for it all in a book. And our classy language would shine with the utmost respect for our peers and contemporaries.

Hope this pic of a fir at Heart O' the Hills Campground, in Olympic National Park helps someone of our age & size. Sorry it's not a video of a Ponderosa Pine. Arboreally yours, Ox (206) 949-8733 www.treedr.com

New Orleans on Memorial Day Hey, There's an in-laws wedding on the Sat before Memorial Day. Whut's a good thing to do when in New Orleans? It would be great to wear a Masterblaster T-shirt (size 2XL) to the bachelor party.

Which saw is this?
