Hi Lads, first of all thejollylogger, while I don't know you I'm glad your still here,
Homeowner here with a dangerous habit of collecting chainsaws lol
So my question if anyone can answer, can you not hit the trunk with the back of an axe prior to climbing to assess soundness of the wood? Or Hammer a big screwdriver into the trunk and depending on how easy/hard it's journey is, kinda make an assessment from that?
Or, does each tree sound the same as they are still standing an the weight of wood above where your standing give you a false positive?
I've never climbed and I don't plan to but never say never either,
