    Bridge lengths

    I'll tell you, my friend...in more than 40 years of professional tree work, I so seldom set an overhead climbline for a spur climb as to make it something less than 5 percent of the time. You work in a very different forest type than I, so there should be caveats :). Gaffing out is a...

    Bridge lengths

    i can deal with the shorter pulls im more so concerned about having my system tight when working on a spar, or is that more of just a backup that doesnt really stay taught its just there in the event you gaff out or something.

    Bridge lengths

    yea thats what i think im going to do, i might get the adjustable bridge setup from monkey beaver so i can make it super short for ascending without having to fight to fit into it when putting my harness on. Although it kind of freaks me out so ill probably keep a fixed one and put a ring...

    Bridge lengths

    I'm with @friedrich...a very short bridge will squeeze you like a toothpaste tube. Long pulls are overrated...especially by short peeps like me :).

    What's the weather like in your neck of the woods?

    Windy with a 40 degree temp drop. Light snow as well. I was outside in a t shirt last night and spent a few hours with my bibs on this afternoon.

    What's the weather like in your neck of the woods?

    51 overnight. 26 now and dropping. Winds with gusts up to 70 mph. Lots of dead ash blowing over. Saw a power pole with a transformer on it snapped off half way up. Got my generator running yesterday. Surged a little. Drained out the 2 gallons that was in it and put in fresh gas. Good...

    Sizwill? Sizwheel? Whizzy? WTH (What the Heck)

    Rotten. Lots of 4 and 5 footers that we joked you could literally cut with a skill saw. 3 or 4 inches of sound sap wood is all they had. Took 15 to 25 feet off the butts usually before you'd hit sound wood. Trees were shorter than the stuff down here. Lots of snags. And lots of bears.

    Sizwill? Sizwheel? Whizzy? WTH (What the Heck)

    It was wet. 10 days all summer it didn't rain. It gets old. No hardwoods to cut. All spruce and hemlock. The hemlock was all rotten on the butts. Lots of Huckleberry brush, and bugs. Lots of fish too. It's wonderful place if you like to hunt and fish, especially fish. I loved every...
