    Standing stem logging

    Thanks for sharing Reg. Reminded me of when I was a young man and worked for Blackcomb, occasionally we would drop avalanche charges from a helicopter. I do miss the mountains....... but not the rain.

    Where to put your lanyard when negative rigging?

    I have my wire core lanyard directly under my rigging sling with my climbing line cinched directly above the sling. Check all the systems twice before cutting. Only takes a second.

    New Fall Arrest training requirement for Ontario?

    If I'm doing tree work on a construction site, possibly. I'll have to check into that. Just because I'm in a tree, say homeowners backyard. I believe no.
