was there no access the other side of the fence?

on the pic's with all the rigging there was a side walk way so we did not go through the house.

the pic with all the wood piled up we went through the house. there are some nieghborhoods where all the home's are attached and going through the home is the only way to get the tree out.

That was crazy. I couldnt imagine how small the brush would be to get it through there. Looks like a crane job!

I don't have photos of this whole tree but ran across it when going through hurricane picts. We used a false crotch and lowered straight down off of itself.

some more of this job

PTS, nice pics....but....Why not have a lifeline and rigging line in the standing tree? Or is it further back that it appears to be? From my keyboard's perspective, that looks like it could be a textbook GRCS application.....swing everything away from the roof, then when the leaner's weight is down to 3000 lb or so, winch the whole thing up and away. Though I can see the spar tree is on the other side of the roof peak, so you'd need a guy line to keep the leaner held back til it cleared the roof. Or use mechanical advantage, if you have a Spectra (or similar) line like ours, rated to 19000 lb, and rated to be used at its full strength, as long as it isn't shock loaded.

Not ragging on you at all about how you did it, just a teaser for you GRCS-less souls.

this tree had nothing directly behind it or withing a 45 degree angle of it. The trees in the background were like 75 feet away and there was nothing even remotely close to overhead. A life line would have done nothing but idenified the location of the body after it fell. Matt would have hit the ground first

Everyones still alive so I'd say job well done!

 

[kf_tree]

my first thought was the same as rbtree's, fuuny how different a pic is from reality. job well done.
