We don't have trees that big in Nebraska. Sometimes the corn gets that big, though.
Nice video, as always, Ben.

Thankyou Jeff,
now giant corn I would like to see that
it is a shame not to have big trees around you - I grew up in the deserts of WA so can relate to that one.

That is a great one Ben, nicely done sir. What an amazing tree. How long was that job? For a second I thought you were going to do the whole thing with the wrench

Hi Levi,
was about 4 hours from memory, getting up on SRT was a breeze - was still waiting for my order from TS at that point so didn't do the way out limb ends cause needed/ wanted the small cam to set the advantage on the way back.
would be the 8th or 9th time I have climbed the tree over 12 years - first time got clocked by a swing out of a piece being lowered and was knocked out for 5 mins in the canopy lying on top of one limb - have worn a helmet in the tree ever since.
but one of my favourite old friends this tree and the customer Hilda loves her Cedar so it is always a pleasure to go and see how she is doing and have a chat .
more customers like Hilda would be welcome.
Ben
