Hi Chris. I had 2 × 3/4 and 1 x 5/8 to hold the trunk. I had a 5:1 to pull it over. I think it was slightly favored anyway, but preloading the 5:1 made sure if it. Thanks
Thanks all. The two bottom support lines got stretched pretty hard when the long landed....without two I wouldn't have risked it. The whole task of dealing with that tree was always going to be about that one moment. A good result then.
The third line didn't come into play until I needed to...
This fir take down was part of a recent job of about 12-14 trees. Approximately 165 ft tall, but easy work. The log was the hard part....at least, safely getting the bottom part down the hill on my own today. Lots of pics.
