And that is why you don't top trees...

probably topped itself...and then a cut was made

The guy in the bucket needs a fall arrest harness,,

probably has a saddle and lanyard on. I'd hate to get thrown out of a bucket and be attached by my back. Saddle and lanyard is kosher.

utterly useless
need a fiberglass boom, or climb it like a man

Yup. He's pretty old school and uses an old weaver saddle. He's 63 and he's been doing it that way since he was 18. I did ask him to wear the full fall arrest harness the next day.

Thanks. I thought it was "chicken of the woods" which has a different barely pronounceable latin name. But this one looks more likely.

@treevet want me to go get a video of me climbing? im thinking a 40-50ft pole race type thing
basically, how fast can I : put saddle and spurs on, get my system set, and get up to a marker in the tree, and back down

As long as you are belayed. I don't want any blame for a wipe out.

I dont blame people for my screwups

and, no belay, im not that smart lol, if im ever worried I will set a line in a choker around the tree, so should anything happen it catches, and at worst I lose a $20 carabiner

$2500 for a three hour tree. The rest of the day was setup and tear down. Nice relaxing job.

I’m telling you man, there’s peace in the back yard!

It was a lovely day here in mansionville. High of around 75 I think, birds singing, money a flowin.

 

[ZinTrees]

not much "race" to it, I under estimated how many limbs id pass on the way up, and didnt feel like racing lanyard swaps
