A few weeks ago I was working on a town hazard tree plan that was designed by a different company. You'd expect to have some differnces of oppinions and such, but this tree got bumped up quick.

It was supposed to be a hazard prune. I was told to do it as is and make my recommendations later.

Here's the base.

Mark;
You better get some pruning compound in there.

That is a weird looking crack. it almost looks like wind damage. Is that thang Holler? Or at least wicked decayed.

 

[Mark Chisholm]

Yes and Yes. It was, but now it's mulch!

Seems that was a no brainer

Hey Mark, how did you go about getting it down? I am I correct to assume you used a bucket truck to reach the canopy? I have only a few months of on the job work and some of the rigging and climbing solutions my production foreman came up with blew me away. Just curiouse if it took anything special to deal with that decayed of a tree. Thanks

Bucket for that one. It was hollow and cracked, but no rigging really. Very simple, I just thought that the crack was worth the photo.

Yeah, but it was freezing cold and I just wanted to snap it and get to work!
