Great work. I have strapped stuf before but never used the rigging to help. Nice set up.

Thanks guys.

That tree was a lot of fun to work on, but I wouldn't want to have them like that everyday, that's for sure.

For those of you who are interested in some of the techniques that we used on this particular tree, I would suggest reading Mark Chisholm's excellent article entitled “Engineering A Tree Removal”. I’ve attached the link to the article below. Many of the concepts are that we used are explained nicely in the article.

I also have a post coming up soon on a rigging project that did not go quite as planned.

Chris, thanks for posting that link. I'd read it previously, and it opened my eyes to some new concepts, especially as related to rigging off of leaders attached with inclusions and wide spreading trees.

Good stuff. Thanks to Mark C. for writing it.

Yep. I agree. It is refreshing to see when people know what they are doing.

It bothers me to see people overlook or down play hazards in a tree and take no precautionary measures...
