One of my last jobs was killer with the wraptor... Shot the first tree... 80' tip.. then climbed up to new TIP at 95' or so. While was up there, tossed a throw bag and line right where I wanted into the tree next to me and finished the tree I was in.. Then pull line in.. Wraptor up.... repeat 4...
You can also just take it off the line like you did and hang it from a loop runner, advancing it as you go higher. Then just take it back down with you. That way the weight is not on you as you move up ward. .
High a shot as possible yes. I used to fret more over a high conifer shot to access...
I do single stem all the time. If you are talking about a removal.. I can visualise an issue. If you are are doing a prune, no worries.. Just keep it in close to the stem and leave it there.
I just leave it in the tree and lower it when I hit the ground when working alone. I don't always use the Wraptor rope with it. I have other hanks of rope that range from 80' to 200 feet and several in between. I try not to have a lot of excess line sitting at the base of the tree. Easy enough...
Wraptor rocks!
Personally, I would have ordered 200 feet of rope with it Sean ;)
Your job as climber just got a lot easier on those tough ones and your career has also been extended barring any injuries my friend.
