I'm just grumpy as hell today because I got snowed out and now I'm working the weekend to stay on schedule. I'll admit I get my back up when people start talking about fatalities and what not in the woods like it's something that could be avoided. I'm telling ya if the woods wants ya you're...

So that was a note he left or something? How do you know the specifics of the fatality. As in was he boogeying or was he being complacent and headed to the next tree? I'm not saying cut a tree put your head down and run, but I am saying when it hits the fan if a good place to be is far away...

Yah? It ain't that quick as I did 12 years in the woods without even a single lost day injury let alone anything serious happening to me. If you already have your two escape paths to a (relatively)safespot in mind as you should when falling, than when it's time to boogy I'll get there and then...

I hear what you're saying and agree. But honestly for me if all hell breaks loose I gotta say I'm bad for head down and running like I'm in a 100m sprint. It's served me well so far but I have felt the tingle of wondering if I'm about to be crushed from above. I'm not saying it's right to not...

Which goes with my reasoning in another thread of never working with fools. Of course you'll look out for yourself but another set of eyes if their around never hurts imo. Also in my plan if that person yells or does whatever to signal you, you don't start looking for the hazard you get out of...

I remember those pics Stephen I don't think I could cut with somebody else touching me or being that close. I'll have a spotter watching hangers or some hazard at a safe distance themselves but close enough that I can easily hear them. And in situations like that hearing protection can be damned!

Well many trees have hangers and they're a hazard fo sure, widowmakers. If they can be fished out like was suggested than great but if not, what I'll do in a situation like that is keep a earmuff off to be able to listen better and obviously watching as much as possible and if someone's...

I thought it had to go somewhere other than it's lean. If it can go with the lean just cut it down, I wouldn't worry about those limbs keeping it up in the air, deal with that on the ground. Edit: If it can go with the lean than why bother pulling on it?

I hate dead pines. Charge thick. Hell charge enough that everyone of us who posted in this thread could get a consulting fee ontop of the outrageous money you'll make for doing the job.
