Finally got all my cabling supplies and finished the two oaks waiting on them. Kave on one side and I on the other. Some good 5 hour tree bondage will satisfy the soul in the proper elements.
I climbed DRT/MRS with 225' of 13mm Blue Streak in DF just like that, more than a few times...it can be pretty arduous :). Heavy rope, and a lot of it, to overcome gravity and friction loads with muscle.
I got a call from a neighbor with a drone stuck in a large oak. I enjoyed climbing it and rescuing the little flyer. I want to get a picture of the tree later and try to identify it. The most Velcro like thing I have encountered. I was unable to get a good high tie in even with my big shot...
Dying cedar to near shop.
root disease doug-fir reduction upwind of shop. Even after topping, I was 60' short of rope to MRS. At least a 200' rope.
Same tree, further away.
Some of you southerners, lmk

That's a big bar for up there. I've had really good luck moving giant rounds with a wedge like you have and a simple 24"crow bar- gives plenty of force in a small, light package
The amount and size of wood to move off site is a limiting factor for our equipment. There is so much quartering I am willing to do. This elm spar was still 30ft tall when I took this picture. Bigger companies can have big jobs. No shortage of trees in CT.
This will go quick, but wanted to share. Guy is asking $35K for a 2024 Avant 528 with bucket and grapple (bmg style dangle grapple). I paid over $50K for my 2021 Avant 528 brand new. This is a steal!
