Square peg, round world.
Looking for a reasonably accurate way to measure the height to a certain spot on a tree. For example, I need to find where 55' is on a pine tree to see if it has the diameter and knotiness to make a good timber. I have a laser rangefinder that will give inclination. Not sure if I can shoot the base, then the top and use trig to get the tree height. I know there are relaskops, but they are out of the budget at the moment. Thanks.
