Bridged over stationary sprinkler head using wheel chocks and a chunk of wood, topped with 4'*4' plywood.

Ready for the grinder.

Oops! I didn't see that the Groundman didn't prop the OSB with rounds I'd already dropped, as I asked.


The retired homeowner said No Worries, he'd putty and touch-up paint.

His wife is stoked we didn't smash the rhodies, their screening to the road. Happy wife, happy life.

He thought they were terribly leggy. Then, I showed good all the dormant buds popping. Given enough time, the rhodies will fill out nicely.

So, you don't deal with wires much, huh?



After putting on a climbing and rigging show for the neighbors, I noticed annosus root and butt rot in their hemlock. Turns out to be a grandma of Dahlia's school mate. Removal is about sold before the bid.
 
Brushing out slots to drop big dead pines in.. Burned it all.
Nice thing was, the ground got real wet this winter. The dingosaurus was able to uproot the Ceanothusus for the most part. Then just slide the tree into the slot. Tons of storm throw on this place. Spent about 6 days there on and off..... Had to drop these two basically up hill.. Primaries below and fence on both sides.

Hey, Stephen. If it wasn't for the coffe cup on the stump, one would think a real logger had been there, nice stump, beat up wedges and all.
 
And besides, Stig, most loggers don't SRT with multiple redirects to remove mistletoe and dead wood the following gig. :lol:
See if I can formulate the before and afters on this Oak. I'm in that pic somewhere....

I am on my second day with 3 ascents. Finished the part over the back of the house. Had to lower some of it. Now I get to bomb some out.
1st ascent had three natural crotch redirects. 2nd, two. Third took the Wraptor up so I could get a better Ddrt limb walk out a weird shaped one and some target limbs in the top I went into. More SRT tomorrow. Lot of tip work on this one. Spider up and down on the edge of the canopy to get little bits of the parasite.
 
I though about posting that video Marc :/: :lol:

Thanks Stig :)
Coffee from one of our little local coffee shops. Gots to have my coffee and help local money flowing :)

You know what they say about coffee? Coffee spelled backwards is eeffoc, so without my coffee in the morning I don't give a eeffoc. :)
