Thanks JP. I did not want the customer to think I was having too much fun. But it did kind of feel like a rec climb in a way :D

No doubt :thumbup: Only way to be :)

Is that called selective vision :/:

I remember when I discovered what other people saw with good eyes.. Leaves on trees. Pine needles........ Sux being in some canopy with a good spread and not having the prescription lenses. Tough to hit the crotches when trying to traverse. Or seeing that little piece of mistletoe. Thank god for...

Thanks... :) Deva.. once I removed everything over the roof... well... that pretty much made for what new balance it was gonna have... :lol: Burnam... I have progressive lenses... I had bifocals when I was younger. I like the new fangled ones and all. But they take some getting used to :lol: I...

I can see to knot.. It's the going back and forth from close to far and close to far. :lol: Sometimes my eyes are just more tired than usual and I will wear my prescription glasses. More on prunes though. Removals I try to stay in strictly safety glasses... It was a very enjoyable job. The pace...

We did some felling as well. This three leader oak was not in a good way. Hollow on the back leader and chock full of ants. Climbed and cut the tops out so the stick would fit amongst the trees and not beat them up. The one leaning over the pump shed disguised as the out house had to go. We...

Alternating Lanyard Technique ..... I reset the line as soon as I was done with the lining of the branch tips. I was standing on horizontal wood with no tie in above me. Pretty much lashed off to what I was working at my feet, but belayed through a large crotch behind me should anything cut...

And the aftermath photo........Again.. just roof clearance. Push to shove, the weight of the tree is such they could be felled away from the house in a JIC scenario as well.

Some of the beginning... :lol: Bullet Blight

The white oak bullet tree.... Zip line ran over the roof and a garden. Most of the work (as you can see, there are a few limbs missing) was to take any threats off the house and driveway. There was a little live oak we also took the limbs off that were over the house we did not really get...

The hey.. yous guys... you forgot the tag line waiting position :lol: That was a very comfortable limb to stand on at least ;)

The limbs can be vertical. Sometimes they cork screw. It can get fun :lol: These were actually not too bad. The blue oak was pecker holed pretty bad and had some serious limb drop on one side. Pretty careful what I tied into for my TIP. The upper limbs over the roof was climbed more ALT with one...

Originally that tree was going to be a TD as was the live oak on the same side of the house. Lady of the house changed her mind, so roof clearance they became. Mo money for me :D My internet connection is flaky at best tonight and she is sending these in crazy order. Still loading more up.

HO took a bunch of pretty good pics while I was working on a few oaks at a property on a pond. Well, Seth helped too ;) . I just figured I would share some. The white and blue oak were over the roof of the 3 level house. The blue oak we hoisted and drifted the one limb that was only a few feet...
