    How'd it go today?

    When you’re going to run it natural crotch and burn it up anyway, why NOT use ArborPlex? I’m perfectly satisfied with it. Been using it for 35-ish years now. I use 1/2” for up to 500#-600# stuff, and 5/8” when it gets bigger. I have a 75’ hank that I keep hanging on my side when it’s not in use...

    This brings to a close the eradication of Siberian elms from one of the golf courses my father in law who recently passed from cancer was superintendent of. Whole thing has been fun but bittersweet. I wish he had still been here to see me do it, and it done.

    The farm and woodland is about 5 km from my place. It was about -3c so quite fresh but not too bad. Here is the tree, pretty standard looking Norwegian Spruce.

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

    M took some pictures of the high water in our creek and over the road near the end of our driveway... Underwater, just left of center of the first pic, is the 36 inch diameter culvert. A sucking whirlpool forms and dissipates every few seconds. If you got near that, it would take you down in...

    The only credit I’ll give arborplex is that it coils beautifully once it’s glazed over.

    Is t that the truth? I contract climb for a couple of firm in Oslo. Leave the house at 0545 - 0600 if I leave later then I get stuck in traffic. It is usually an hour on the road. Climb for the day and leave anywhere between 1430 - 1530. By that time the traffic has built up and it will be...

    Correct Mick. I would like to grow my own business further but there is one firm out here who are generations from this area. He either went to school with someone, his parent or his grand parent know them. He is a mate and a great guy, so I figured dont be salty. I climb for him, charge a...

    The area I live in has hundreds of Bark Beetle kills, literally hundreds. Beetle kills rhem off they get left for years until they fall. Nesodden in also 90% ants nest. So if ants done get them, or just the decline in the integrity of the wood they usually snap.
