Clips from a crane removal

Good rigging horizontal branches. I like it.

Nice job. Only thing I saw was the first couple picks seemed to have I bit too much tension on them. But that's not so much you guys, its the crane op feeling it out and figuring out how much to pretension. 2 climbers on horizontal stuff is awesome, make easy work out of something that is far from it (with one guy). But you gotta know when its needed and when its not.

Agreed, the crane op had a rough time with the tree in general. The sun was directly behind the tree so I had to try to guide him in and have him move around the rigger. And then from where I was it was hard to see if the cable was plumb or not and the rigger was new to it. I was actually surprised it went as well as it did, you can see the butt swing out or drop a little from a few of the pics.
Had an awesome day Monday with a different crane company, but when I was done with the tree I realized my gopro battery had been dead. Sad face.
