California Hillbilly
45 dead trees on one acre.. All within reach of houses, street, power lines, septic systems, water and other utilities.
Trying to save all she had left in the way of green trees. Some fruit and ornamentals as well.
Pretty much make the dead smaller to fit, climb and rig most of them.
Largest was measured out as 50" DBH at 175' tall. Most were at 100' plus. Some smaller ones came down easy to make room for the larger wood.
I will just keep posting stuff and some narration as I go. Tons of pictures and video.
Enjoy.
Climbers were David Byrnes (thattreeguy), Mike Martella (mountainmike), Stephen (me).
Ground crew, Robert Goodman, Mike Richardson, Jason Drusin and Louis Trotter.
Crane... Sam of Oakhurst Crane 15 ton.
Excavator ..... Don McCracken
Tractor and log trailer... Dale Johnson.
Photographer, Katy Goodman.
