    Looking for 32"x36" pants? Any deals online or pants for sale for my summer employee. I saw Zeros on sale and Husqy pants. Mostly groundwork, some climbing this year. More climbing next summer if not in an engineering internship.

    FREE Branch Manager "Pro" Grapple

    That's fantastic! Love the cartoon... reminds me of someone I know. Dave was very encouraging when I was making the tree career- changing jump to a BMG-mini setup.

    Hypoxylon Canker? :(

    Comparing the same soil under a tree in a heavily trafficked area like a walking path through the CRZ versus the general compacted area under a tree versus an unimpacted area seems useful translate what we already qualitatively know into something quantitative for bean counters. Soils are a...

    Trail Cam and Wildlife Thread

    A customer that's 0.5 mile from my house/ shop had a cougar on her cam. Bear sightings near us happen, too. Sometimes, cougars are on homeowners' decks in the local vicinity.

    edit (unintended partial post that's been finished): I try to have conversations with crew about how things went, how much effort is being exerted, how stable things feel. If things are amiss, Stop. Adjust the plan. Nail it. For the effort of a Maasdam rope-puller being advanced, the...
