I started out on a chilly early morning with a light pile jacket. As the sun rose I got overheated. Any tips for heat management when you have a variety of temperatures in one climb?

After the baby was born Kristen asked me to hang her new hammock between our traditional trees (pin oak and tulip poplar) I lay down to test the hammock and recognized two omenous dead branches about 75 feet up the pin oak. That is out of my throwing range but I was surprised how much trouble it...

My daughter had our first grandchild last week. The baby is named Charlotte. I am looking forward to spending lots of time with the baby.

When I saw the title of the thread, I forgot the expression “putting something in the circular file.” All I could think of was square grinding vs. round filing and it did not make sense! 😂

Converting a RollGliss offer. Thanks… but no, I need the exercise and we have mostly smaller trees here.

Thanks!!

If you want Skylotec’s top shelf ascender, look no further than the ActSafe model https://www.westernsafety.com/fall-protection/skylotec-actsafe-poa-001-power-ascender-kit-with-2-batteries-each?sku=815-POA-001&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=19552379943&gbraid=0AAAAAovunciRakJCYrq0V-h29kraebmgf

Anyone remember the Treehouser who discovered the bargain RollGliss on eBay?

Looks like Skylotech makes a Milan rescue hoist similar to the DBI-Sala RollGliss that was McGivered into an ascender powered by a battery drill. Makes me think the partnership of Skylotech and Husqvarna is a good pedigree for the new ascender.

How does it work?

I don’t know if I missed a memorial in another place in the Treehouse. If anybody can direct me to it I would be much obliged. If there is nothing anywhere else, then let this be a start. He had a sense of humor in at least three languages. Opinionated and confident but sometimes able to listen...

Welcome, Mine.

Is that little orange light inside the cavity daylight shining in?

I think the astranauts call that “extra vehicular activity” EVA
