    That shitshow doesn't get any prettier watching it several more times. Wow.

    How'd it go today?

    NOAA is much more localized than that, by a great deal. I set our location on the map and it covers about 1 square mile with my house in the center. The forecast is interpolated from data from a weather monitoring station at a local airfield just 5 air miles away, as well as broader geographic...

    Good luck, Dave. If it can be done, you're the fellow with the chops to do it.

    That may well be so, but even a high-quality rope of too small dimension and/or load capacity could fairly easily be outmatched by that tree.

    That was a whole lotta tree. With that much weight, and perhaps some internal rot (?), maybe no reasonable hinge would have held up to the sudden shift of weight to the back cut. Obviously a much stouter pull rope was in order. For true, dumping that monster onto a road is an odd choice as well.

    What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

    It has always interested me how the "hot" peppers we get in our grocery, of the several varieties we use from time to time, can be so variable in the heat content...most especially the jalapenos. Some are merely sweetish warm, some will burn your lips off, most are somewhere in the middle :)...

    I remember that photo from some time in the past. Nice, Rich. One can see where Haakon gets his fine physique, at least the genes of it...hard work brings it to fruition ;).

    What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

    Last night we had fettuccini alfredo with hot spicy prawns. Homemade pasta by me, and M's scratch made alfredo sauce. The jalapenos where HOT this time around :D. Yummy yum yum.

    Brilliant! Laying a tree down gently

    For many species, that wouldn't work. But it sure did work fine there.

    Sorry @friedrich, I missed your post somehow. To answer your question...that would certainly have stopped any slippage from happening, but... First most, I was using two prusiks on two separate winching arrangements; one to advance the pull and one to capture the gain while the first was reset...
