I wouldn't cut that down I'd wait for those oysters to pop out all fresh like and save a few bucks at the super market!

Not a fantastic picture, but definitely sums up my year. (And I actually did take it!)

this was a few weeks ago.

I don't think I've ever seen sprouts like this on a beech. Some mechanical damage to trunk root flare and spouts popped up along the callous ridge.

Stuff that isn't seen often is really cool for me to witness.

Found a couple other decent ones. Apparently I took pictures at a grand total of 3 jobs this year.

Would be more believable if that pipe had ever been smoked. Look at the inside. No charring whatsoever. Staged, I say, staged!

Yeah, where's all the sawdust anyway?!

Only thing more annoying than urban cowboys is those damn urban lumberjacks!

 

[Oroboros]

Urban lumberjacks? I think you mean "lumbersexuals". That's right they've been officially identified by some university smarty pants.
Here's a little Canadian humour for you all.

Too funny... but he left peckerwood and morning wood off his list...

squad 143 , it looked like you had removed a center most lead, before working on the outside of the tree?

The pic makes it look like you had to work harder than nec , due to no center tie in

Wow, sorry, but I missed your post.
Looks that way, but I'm actually a little below (almost level) my tip redirect through the crotch.
The top of this tree was quite brittle and we bombed most of it on the ground.
The one limb I'm climbing on had to get rigged down because it was over some wires beside the driveway.
Here is the tree mid-removal (had to jump in the truck to warm up)

Amazing pics everyone! you guys rock. I don't have anything that even compares, but here are some that show my local scenery. January, 2014 two day job at a remote camp. Never got above zero. luckily the caretaker had a wood-stove going in his bunk room and even cooked us hamburgers for lunch!

Agreed! Where are your snow shots from?

 

[1adkarborist]

a private place called the Adirondack mountain reserve. only a handful of camps about ten miles from the nearest paved road. I go every chance I get! lots of old growth, rustic cabins built around 1907 out of local spruce, no electricity and no cell phones! I didn't take this one, but this lil' fella wanders around!

Looks real nice. I see the "little fella" in the picture
