The same day Ascending the Giants climbed the world record pine tree (Ponderosa), Taylor and I found a Sugar Pine that was apparently a new 2nd tallest known Sugar Pine.
This is a Sugar Pine cone, although the trunk behind is the Ponderosa they were climbing.

But, I found something fun from last March. This was a leaning leader off a multistemed Cottonwood. It was one cut. We simply rotated it 90° and set it down in the driveway. Bucked it, chipped it and loaded the logs in about an hour. Total weight was 10,000lbs.

We are just out of room. I felt like it was time to add, We had some property with better frontage exposure and access. So we put up another 9000sq ft. It has been great weather to build bad weather for snow plowing. All is well here.Looks like we will get snow for next 5 days.
Ok I chose this one because it depicts tree work in Barbados. Not very tall trees but some very crazy climbing ( long limbwalks ) and always cool views of the sea and quaint beach houses etc. Very low tech and laid back which is life in the caribbean. Swing.
