I am with you on that one Leon. I always have Kat or Rob take a second look for me while I am up the tree. They have the customers perspective and god only knows I have missed something from time to time.
Fiona, I will on Manzanita. It actually holds the tree together in my experiences in the past. But we are talking more snow load issues on a more shrub like tree. The dead twigs help keep the larger live limbs from tear out from the trunk or a leader. Snow might still snap some smaller live...
Have to also consider height and length of limb as well IMO.
Often down to about 1" if I feel it necessary. If it looks like it could hurt someone and or something.. I remove it.
