    New guide to wood decay fungi

    Got my copy this week, opened up to the very beginning where it talks about “The Big Five Must-Know Decay Fungi” and immediately recognized one of them, because it’s growing on my Red Oak in my yard…:tonto:

    Srt for heavier climbers

    I’m heavier than you and I gave up on the rope runner. I tried it on ropes from 11.5-12.5 and could not get it dialed in. Sold it and I use a zigzag w/chicane. It’s smooth as butter regardless of what rope I run it on.

    Time for a chipper upgrade, what's your preference?

    We went with the biggest Diesel engine option is what I recall. I’ll have to check tomorrow at the shop, can’t remember off hand.

    Time for a chipper upgrade, what's your preference?

    I can’t say enough good things about our 19XPC. It’s a beast. We used to run Morbark chippers, but once they went public their builds were lower quality and the service went downhill FAST! We bought a brand new 19XPC and absolutely LOVE it! One of the main features that pushed us to switch to...

    Looking for advice on becoming a contract climber

    The contract climber we use charges $1,400/day. That’s well above the National average which I believe is somewhere around $450/day and he is worth every penny because he’s literally doing the hardest, most technical work in our area.

    Looking for advice on becoming a contract climber

    Be prepared to work the sketchiest, most difficult trees every time you’re hired. We only bring in a contract climber for trees that scare the crap out of us…just sayin’.

    Invasive Species Removal?

    We use Tordon. It works great. Apply it immediately after cutting the stump. https://www.amazon.com/Brush-Killer-Ready-to-Use/dp/B08PC6GN2R/ref=mp_s_a_1_4_mod_primary_new?crid=3MPU39OU8EEW4&keywords=tordon&qid=1662207115&sbo=RZvfv%2F%2FHxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sprefix=tordon%2Caps%2C507&sr=8-4

    Don't Bee this Guy

    This was just the top of a hive that was revealed after a limb broke out in a recent storm. There’s easily close to 1,000 bees visible and the hive continues well down into the trunk.

    Don't Bee this Guy

    I suspect large honeybee hive. I’ve never seen a hornets or wasp nest that big ever… Plus, it would be easy to miss spotting a honey bee hive because they’re inside the trunk wood.

    Removal of a large decayed limb on heavy leaner

    You can rope it down if you’re not sure.

    Removal of a large decayed limb on heavy leaner

    Maybe it’s a Red Oak, hard to tell from the pick. Either way, unless there’s fungal growth at the base of the tree I climb hard learners like that with no issues.

    Removal of a large decayed limb on heavy leaner

    That’s a White Oak. I would have no problems climbing that tree even with its heavy lean. You can drop that limb flat and have cones over any sprinklers in the area which would protect them. Should be a relatively quick climb IMO.

    Aerial rescue scenario

    Our company utilizes the Twinline Rope Guide 90% of the time when we’re climbing. This forces you to always set a rescue line. No one ever expects to have an accident while climbing, but we all make mistakes. It doesn’t really take that much time to install a rescue line.
