That job was a treat. One of first/few times I got to just fell trees and not have to piece down or pull. They hinged well too which I don’t usually get.

I like both options)
Priced 2 Spruce for takedown no cleanup. Homeowner wanted to give it a shot and made a fair showing with some Frankensteined climbing gear and an electric reciprocating saw. One of his lower straps on his polegaff was a little alligator clipped strap you would use to secure a section of air hose to an industrial heater. He did his best and skinned them a good 30' before he decided he had had enough.

Laminated root disease trees coming down.
So far all wedge overs.
Have to go trim off some low, long branches below the communication line.
These trees could blow over the power line (again, 1 fell this past winter), and a horse stable.
91 degrees at the airport, cooler in the country, and rocking a Coolvest.
A bit sweaty, and not bad at all.

Did a combo of stacking plates and atacked wedges to finally get limb-locked trees apart.
Two triple-stacked wedges with bore-cut slots.
Pulled the rotten spruce.
Pulled the last doug-fir that was against the fence.
Every one of the 13 was backed up to the power lines.

I found the Avants limits today. A little winching and we got out with our tails tucked

What size Avant? I love my little 528. almost 500 hours and so far I have been able to self extract using the extending boom whenever I've gotten into sticky situations.

You almost have to get stuck with a new machine just to see what it takes.

Avant 630 I'm loving it. What is hard to see is the wash out I'm stuck in. Im still learning how to party with it. That 500 to 600 series seems like a good spot for tree work.

Big firs over 3 days, view pruning of epicormic growth, low limbs blocking the view of the skyline on the opposite shore.
I realized today that the far shorelines' trees have grown a good amount since the view pruning was done a long time back.
Spurless was work. Got my rope walking going.
Cedar logs to lumber.
Another "unit" of cedar is waiting.
Doug-fir siding was started today at the sawmiller "Brother Lennie"

We are still logging on Møn in record heat.
This is one of the last big ash trees that needed to go to the mill before armillaria ruined it completely.
We've been starting at first light to try to beat the heat.
To have your 3rd big stick on the ground, bucked and limbed just as the sun peeks over the horizon is a great feeling.
So is quitting at 2 PM and heading for the beach.

Good to hear from you, Stig.
I was just checking to see how long you'd been gone logging, then see you'd logged in yesterday.
Good pics.

Beautiful log there. I wish our ash looked like that

Little stretch yesterday. Put both pics because I noticed the one I chose first makes it look like I set up way out of level

Forgive me for showing my ignorance, but why would that be a crane job? Looks like sufficient room to fell from the ground. Of course, we all know pictures don't show everything in play. But I'm curious. Thanks.
