That's a lot of rats.

Yessir, they can cause untold grief.

I thought you might be interested, Cory...in the last 10 days I have trapped 21 mice in my Jag, and 14 under the house. This is the time of year when it seems the deer mouse activity in my cars and buildings always escalates...but this is unusually high numbers.

Oh, yeah. Long since time :).

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.

Neatsfoot oil is good for that.

Reflects my thought exactly.

Those are great old beasties. Far too many have been kicked to the curb in my part of the world due to not meeting EPA regs when a house changes hands, per local law. You did good!

It happens again...B is the lost old man not getting a reference. Mick is too clever for me :D.

Orrrr...just use big as hell rigging and hope for the best :D. Usually works :|:. :P

Maybe move the chipper on a smooth bottomed skid of some sort...like a small jon boat? Or a purpose-built plywood sled?

Shouldn't be toooo hard. I'd go with the rope, myself. Lots of rigging to set it up...and you'd need some strong pull available to both lift the skyline after the load is attached and to retrieve it back uphill. A bit tricky to keep the load fixed under the carriage as the skyline is hoisted...

I haven't the slightest understanding of that post... Not yours, Cory :).

One day maybe I'll get smart enough to own a phone that is smart enough to run a cool app like that. :|:

Now that is a well-used extractor :).

Have a good one, brother!

Understood.

Doubtless.

@Naturarbo Not to cast any stone at your work or the way you pursue it...but just from what I can see from your posted vids it seems like (I know, pics/vids never show the whole scene :)) that at least some of that work could have been felled either whole, or a lot earlier in the process after...

Sounds like more than a few of the logging crews I knew back in the 70's and 80's.
