Good pics BOTS, how did you get the trunk wood down safely?

What is up with the ladder, lurker?
And welcome

 

[MarcM]

Couple, two, three more...

Did you have that one tied together in the top as well, or did that chain hold it alone?

Thanks. Eh, I think I pulled my climb line before I was ready to cut that last stem and I had to go up and down a couple times for something or other after... changed saws, I think I ate lunch in between... so that was fastest up to that split. Pretty awesome ladder though right?

I had a 3000 lb load strap double wrapped up top plus I was able to get the pull line around both stems.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Nice chainwork!

 

[High Scale]

Looked at this a while back, priced to fell both, owner just wants it cleared up and reduce the un-damaged tree by half.


Oh dear.

 

[cory]

Oh, another insane custy.

Marc, the last pic of the first set is my favorite. Nice job.

La Becasse, we used a controlled speed line on the top portion, then set rigging in the nearby Pine to finish the bottom portion.

Nice job! What did you have for friction up in the pine, and how did you install it?

 

[Bixler]

After speed lining the top and a couple chunks of wood, I transferred over to the nearby Pine, climbed single line to install the ABR rig & ring saver for our rigging point. It has a beast ring on one end, and a Large XRR on the other, works great. Thanks Cory.

 

[BOTS]

Other pics are good Brian, I was to busy on ropes to snap a shot

And then removable from the ground I presume? Cool!

 

[Bixler]

Yep Cory, you can set it and retrieve it remotely.

 

[SouthSoundTree-]

Nice work fellas. How come so many big pines go away? Beetles? Development?
