    Borer battle - habitat trees?

    I’m taking out beetle kills in this cabin community. Might it be beneficial to leave some as habitat for woodpeckers that feed on borers? Reduce hazard limbs but leave room for holes? Drill holes? Ideally these habitat trees would be ones that have been dead a season or two and their crop of...

    more video

    Cool job! Pretty good video too, I like the production on the video. What do you do with all of the branches and wood? It looks like you are pulling up in a van with a small trailer, did you trailer everything away?

    Pros and Cos of various friction hitches in the trees

    I’ve always tied the taut line 2 under / 2 over. Used that exclusively from early 1970s until hitchclimber came out with eye to eye hitches (started with vt and other hitches until I found the Michoacán). Rope wrench (wood version) then a lot of the mechanicals out there, but ever tried the ZZ...

    Pros and Cos of various friction hitches in the trees

    Original HH here as well...an original original :) VT, four wraps one crossover with 8mm beeline. (I think its 8mm...) Single line. It works just as well if I need to use it double from time to time. I untie it all at the end of the day. I have a lovely Akimbo in my ditty bag that Stig gave me...

    Pros and Cos of various friction hitches in the trees

    I'm stuck on the vt myself, love a 3/3 vt or a 4/3. Most everyone I know ended up preferring the michoacan. I only use a hitch for the lanyard though, been climbing on mechanical only for very long.

    Does the piece need rigged away, or can it drop? Looks like a pretty straightforward snapcut scenario, maybe a little notch.

    Pros and Cos of various friction hitches in the trees

    Mickey, you should post up a pic of your set up. So for your prussic, you use a prussic loop? A taut line hitch is "2 under 1 over" so I'd say it is similar to a prussic but it is tied with a tail of rope so the end of the taut line hitch is loose, unlike a prussic which has no loose end. And...
