That was a good video, lots of good explanations. Thanks for posting. Was that your video?
I have another pine to remove that will be fell onto a driveway. It is probably 22" dbh and broke out at about 60'. It's going to hit hard and there isn't a lot of room to lay it. I was going to...
I only ended up falling 2 trees across the driveway and the other one out into the road. The bigger tree I fell across the drive had what I call a sucker limb (a big limb that grows almost like a forked top). I had to climb it to tie a line in it so we could pull it over so I cut that limb out...
We didn't get to the 3 trees that have to be fell across the driveway but we did get some logs laid out for tomorrow. The are 9 trees total that need removed and we got 5 of them today. Could have gotten 6 but the wind was blowing a good breeze and I thought it better to wait until tomorrow.
I hope I don't have any "divot" pictures to post when I'm finished. I should know tonight, starting this job today and hope to have all 9 trees cut and cleaned up before dinner.
I have 9 trees to remove so I will start with a few of them that don't need fell on the driveway. I will use them to armor both sides really well. I'm afraid the asphalt is just laid over the top of compacted roadmix, so it probably won't be bomb proof.
Asphalt. They are all ponderosa pine, maybe 14"-20" diameter on the stump. The driveway sits slightly higher. I have one log I will put on the edge of it so I don't cave it in. I also have some 3/4" plywood I can put down. No pictures...
Of the thousands of trees I have fallen I can't ever recall falling any of them on pavement. I have a few to fall on and across a driveway and I'm wondering if I need to take any precautions?
