Wow...the monster tree. Looking forward to seeing this progress. Congrats.

You ever consider doing some of your at height work from a Purple Haze carpet?

You know....hook up the crane hook, etc.

Finished pruning and got to drop a small pine. Figured it was a good opertunity to practice my humbolt.

Everybody knows you don't do tree work from a carpet!

Nahhh, carpets for shagging.

Rajan: Man that tree was nuts.

Fiona: Awsome. Glad to see we're not the ONLY ones in the rain, too. Well done.

Eric: California is just it's own, seperate tree-planet. I've seen a ton of Western Junipers. Probably the biggest one I've ever seen was about 1/8 the size of that pig.

Buddy: Good work, brother. The boys in the House would probably like me a TON better if I drank a lot more ice-water.

Rich: uh-ohh... Yer never gonna go back man, I'm tellin ya. Eric and Gerry B. are the only ones who make me want to cut conventional. I like the way the butt slips off on the Humboldt. Eric, why do you prefer the other way?

Hopefully I'll have pics of the removal on Monday.

I always wondered why it was called shag carpet.

Very good pictures, Tom. You made a proper mess there! Some fine equipment to clean it all up.

 

[rico11764]

It's what I was taught when I was coming up. It also feels very natural to me. I do use a Humboldt from time to time, when the situation calls for it.

 

[treebilly]

Same here Eric. I very seldom have to clean up a notch when I cut conventional. Humbolt is quite the opposite. That's why I practice it when I don't have to hit a tight lay.

 

[Limbrat]

Cool pics Tom!

 

[BOTS]

I always use a Humboldt when Im taking a top, less push on trunk, after that, just chunky monkey it down with some conventional notches while still looking cool no doubt

 

[pantheraba]

That's always been my way, too...Humboldt for a top. Couldn't find a top...but is is a hummer.

 

[flushcut]

Nice one!

Awesome pic Gary

 

[BIGTWIG]

Thanks Ray, nice pics Scott and Gary!

 

[pantheraba]

Thanks...a few more...they really loved this tree...built the gutters around it.

Not tree work, but work non the less. I live in a little off the grid community in some deep, steep terrain with tall timber. Our roads took a real beatin' this winter. I have been fixing some of the bigger slides on my days off! I want to give a shout to Old Yeller (doing water duties). We have been trying to kill this truck for 20 years, but it just keeps going!

 

[pantheraba]

Serious road and serious roadwork. I like that old truck with the tank on it...lots of history there.

 

[cory]

Looks like a beautiful spot you live in.

Nice before n after pics, Gary.
