My brother and I used to do this on alders as well as a lot of free climbing high in Doug firs as kids. Kinda bittersweet. Keep the sound off.

Nice. Robert Frost and his bending birches.

I don't know what this guy is on, but that toad is going to have a helluva alien abduction story when he gets home!

Sounds right. What else are they going to do?

They are going to do what they have to.
Lives first, then property.

This is where the lack of guardrails comes in handy, and starts to make a lot more sense.

I’m no dozer operator, but it seems they are much more suited for pushing straight than to the side. That seemed awful slow. A Vee plow on a big 4x4 fire truck would be faster. I can’t find the vid I want…

Or a big forklift how they do at the scrap yards. Forks straight in under the front where the weight is. Forks spread out to the suspension just inside the wheels. Little or no damage. Pickem all up and set them back or to the side. Not nearly as fast as the vee plow.

Trying to be gentle. All things considered. Operator could have made more of a mess of it honestly.
And dozers with blade articulation can easily push things or soils or snow or cars to one side.
