So my rope wrench should be here tomorrow and I’ll be trying single line for the first time. I run either a catalyst or “Arbsession” hitch when I DRT, my wrench and tether are otw to me and I’m going to try SRT for the first time. I got a 9.5” tether, is the allure of the VT based on how easy...

Mild and no rain... Very foggy. So a damp dry. Haha.

Those look 'topped'. Consider a rough guideline of remove 1/3, reduce 1/3, leave 1/3.

maybe it was hit by a tree thas was felled?

The cold is coming. (n)

@Trains @Bermy @Steve Mack thoughts? Eucalyptus that was pruned too hard. I think reduce the regrowth limbs length by 50% and remove the really poorly attached ones. Thanks Also check out this large wound on another. Can’t tell what caused it.

We call them kinkachoos…. That’s where the pop like a bread stick.. over trimming reduces taper.. old climbers would stick deepthr machete to stash or rest on.. so bad.

Exactly. That's a close look at a death wish.

Wind exacerbates low temps like nothing else...except being wet in the wind at low temps :).

If the frame is tweaked and insurance replaces the trailer, look at the 16' dump trailers from Top Choice in Jacksonville, FL. They are very well built and priced right, but the 14' are too tongue heavy. The 16' adds 2' on the back, behind the axles so they are just about perfect. I know 3...

Back when I was a teen a quick thaw broke up the thick ice in our creek. Me and two friends spent all afternoon riding them down our creek. We would jump on as they came out through our bridge. As the afternoon went on the warm weather was making the ice thinner. My two friends ended up in...

She is quite the tree worker.
