    Safely piecing down high branch on tree?

    Needed to get the pictures on to this page. Looks like a 540* lanyard wrap might give you comfort and securing while going up that 45* section. I've sat on low angled sections with a 540* wrap where its too flat to stand in spurs and cut. Various sizes of loop runners, linked together as...

    Kabir, your highline doesn't have to be Super pre-tensioned. You gain little compared to your forces on the anchor trees. As needed, you can guy-line back your anchor trees against the high line pull if they aren't strong enough on their own. Can you rent a tow-behind lift, about $200-250 for...

    I have a decent sized one to work on soon. Nothing substantial as Redwoods go...only touching 100' maybe. I like it all the same. I have some planted at home. Just getting going and now overhead a bit.

    Take that , Van Gogh! Sorry the last picture is upside down. The tie-in points are cut off in the first picture but they can be seen in the second you have a lower stronger anchor points and a higher weaker anchor points with a better angle. You can have another row or your SRT tail pulled away...

    A cable and possible brace option here, depending on the union. I don't work with Tulip Poplar, but I don't think they compartmentalize well (seal around the wound compartmentalizing/ quarantining decay fungi, not callus growth over the cut, which of course happens and is beneficial.) A...

    For clarity, the reason I specified a Hitch hiker, not RW, Gri, Gri, or other rope bending devices, is that when you're SRT with a HH, you can climb on a tensioned line, like you're tail tied off to prevent a bad swing, or for work positioning like a high line, with only one good high TIP. I...

    p.s. sounds like the HO might be trying to get off with a lesser bill...consider limb reduction or whole removal. Sounds like a future hazard in the making. off to the job now...

    You can arrange two safeties at 120* from your TIP, leaving space below the limb for rigging into. 540 wrap you lanyard for slide-arrest.

    Your tail can be strung out somewhat opposite to the TIP to provide swing prevention. Might want a bit of give at the tail tie-off. me me Like so many things, ( SRT SOAPBOX), especially (Hitchhiker). me, off the...
