    Climbing the tree vs climbing a rope in the tree

    @levi r Well, in the 70s there was this kind of re-imagining of the 50s as some kind of golden era, Happy Days was symptomatic of that, in the UK we had pop bands dressed up and singing in 50 styles clothing. It drifted into the eighties but then died out. There is a strong nostalgia these days...

    Ok I have a point, what links Me/Weezer/Happy Days is phony nostalgia.

    Climbing the tree vs climbing a rope in the tree

    I had a thought today about that video from Weezer. Here we are in the mid 2020s posting a video from 30 years ago (1994) In the video you see Happy Days which aired 20 years (1974 approx) before the Weezer video. Happy Days is set in the mid 50s, 20 years before the release of Happy Days. So...

    Climbing the tree vs climbing a rope in the tree

    We had a long journey to work today, and I was impressing on my young climber the need for him to throwline/srt/spurless. He gets it (he says) but he mustn’t get stuck with me in the mid 90s, though to be fair it is rather cool here, no mobiles, girls look better and Weezer have released ‘Just...

    Climbing the tree vs climbing a rope in the tree

    Different strokes and all that. Don’t get me wrong, in many/most circumstances, getting a high tying in point quickly with a throw line is undoubtedly a more effective way of getting up there. In the great scheme of things though, on a one or two tree day, with one or two groundworkers, the...

    Climbing the tree vs climbing a rope in the tree

    Well yeah, but you can start working from halfway up the tree, give the groundy something to chip then continue the ascent.

    I always climb the tree, in fairness I don’t really know any other method.

    They do ok, this one was 75/80 years old. They were rarely planted in groups, probably because they were expensive, so in isolation I often see them with their tops blown out, which ruins them aesthetically.

    Not very big, but not very small sequoia we did last week. As you can see had split at a co-dom earlier this spring.
