    Tree oddities

    The really old ones I remember didn't have many, if any, really major low branches, but they had also see countless hurricanes. I also remember codoms being exceedingly rare on them. Crazy strong wood though, I remember most of them having intact tops, though they did stay fairly short and...

    Tree oddities

    I absolutely adore bald cypress, but where I grew up, on the Loxahatchee, they put on a lot more girth, and typically have a very strong taper. You guy's have also likely never seen one develop "knees", as that is an adaptation they have for dealing with being partially submerged for months at a...

    Tree oddities

    I'm in a similar boat with a 37" DBH oak I just realized that you're talking about Bald Cypress in Indiana! I would love to see a mature one still standing up there. I don't imagine they have craxy phenotypic differences to those in Florida, but they gotta be at least somewhat different right?

    ISA CEU headache.

    I am about to try for the first time to request CEUs for some forest stewardship classes that don't have arrangements made with ISA. I pray it's not too big of a PITA..

    Question about brakes on big trucks

    The rotor is wrecked for sure. I don't know enough to say more for certain, but I'd bet the rest of the brake system should get a good looking over

    Contract Climber/Foreman wanted Maui HI

    This still sounds pretty sweet, and I am approching the time where I could make some moves again, but I don't see there if I would need to get my contractors license in HI, and would I need to be carrying my own insurance? I know how 1099's work around here to a limited degree, and I have worked...

    Bid that tree!

    Thst sounds so freaking cool! I don't why that never occurred to me as an option, but I'll bet the clients are absolutely gobsmacked when they see it in the flesh. I'd be hootin' and hollerin' at you from my car if I saw that driving past.

    Covid Close To You

    Any link that ends in a .edu is part of the conspiracy, remember? That's just misinformation; lies to designed to keep you docile so that they can harvest your children or some bullshit.
