    Advanced Portawrap Details?

    This comes up a lot, But I don’t hear this said very often—I strongly believe that there is more friction with “no” wraps on the portawrap, than with a half wrap.

    Ongoing self doubt/fear

    Lots of great stuff here, cutting caffeine, working with people better than you etc, all really great. Another tactic for me at various stages in my career is to break the tasks down into individual tasks Example: Big scary tree—full removal seems overwhelming. Can I ascend into the tree? Yes...

    Im new to the business, but never climbed before. Any advice?

    @TreeVB is a solid climber in your area, I know he was subcontracting a while ago, but he might be a good call. My advice, if this is a side gig for you (not primary income), then hire a good climber and his trusted ground guy, and you be the facilitator on site. Watching and learning. I...
