Its been a year since i started climbing and this tree will finally come down this week.

How do you even apply for jobs when you self trained? audition? Should i just contract climb and run my own company? I feel pretty comfortable at this point this last top is a little bit sketchy because it is so bendy so i will probably just climb higher and piece it out. Not sure how to top whats left. Although it does have a significant portion of weight on the back side of the top so i will probably top it away from the pov towards the woods.

By the way on vertical branches where it looks like it just had a three cut it did have a proper face cut i would cut above the face cut about 1 foot typically because the position was better for getting away from the limb. On the cuts roughly 45 degrees or greater i used a plunge cut which I’m happy with because I’m better at those now the first one was terrible.
