    Insurance audits

    Hey Fellers, I go by axe, I’m 27, I’ve been doing tree work since I was 18. I started dragging brush and humping logs for the first 2 years. Then taught myself to climb from untying my bosses knots. Long story short I still use simple monkey knot, running bowline, and Clove hutch. One rope...
