    I 100% agree that splitting is best reserved for a maul which I also have. Maybe I need to spend some more time behind a chainsaw. I’m quite comfortable with my 12 and 16” saws but still always grab my a axes and pickeroon for limbing trees. I can’t thank you all enough for all of the advice...

    Thank you all so much! You guys rock :) Does anyone have insight about why no one discusses using axes for limbing when (in my experience which is only minor logging although chainsaws were available for limbing) the axe is often faster? I hope that question makes sense

    So some climbing line with stopper knots is generally considered acceptable as a rope bridge for my saddle? I have bought the best I can afford but like most can’t go too crazy. So far climbing has just been a hobby, but I’d like to get on a crew as a groundie and see where things go.

Duly noted in regards to making sure to purchase from reputable brands. Is there a generally accepted “favorite” brand and size for the rope...

    Thank you guys so much for the very warm welcome! So my first question was about my rope bridge on my saddle... I always see rings being used on the rope bridge but my sequoia srt didn’t come with one. I’ve been climbing for about a year without a ring, but what are the reasons to have one? Is...

    Hey guys, I’m a new member on the forum, but I’ve been lurking around as a guest since 2014. I started climbing last year with some supervision from a buddy who climbed for asplundh. I’ve since moved to southern North Carolina and don’t have someone to bother with amateur questions anymore. So...
