My hat is off to you sir. I'm in north carolina and it is going to be 97 today. I can't imagine the heat you are experiencing. Not looking forward to climbing today and you are doing this for fun.
 
Another climb, more stuff on the ground.

This time I took my new 6" Kobalt 24-volt saw which weighs less than three pounds.

Plenty of power with next to no kickback, just right for one-handed cutting. Now I can cut and toss smaller pieces without getting worn out from hand sawing.

My wife wanted a pair of battery-powered lights for the upcoming storm season. I already had the 12" saw with a 24v battery. Lowes had the 24v lights on clearance for $49 each and the little saw with a battery for $99, so now we're all set.

I hadn't noticed until just now how ugly that saw is.

Felling a 140', 34" DBH dying grand fir. This was a large declining tree near the driveway, water system and garage, so better to take it down now than when it is totally dead. Set a pull-line at around 70' (it is VERY hard to create solid pull-lines from the ground in these trees, so best to climb and set the pull-line), pulled with the More Power Puller, and made a high face with a big snipe to get above a seam on the stump.
