    also to avoid any possible liability issues he didn't want us to climb the tree to set a pulley.

    You can set a pulley up high by using a throw ball, setting a line with a pulley attached and hoisting the pulley up. Tie off the line and you're ready to go. I believe most people call that a retrievable false crotch.

    With a retrivable pulley, you will put up to 4 times the load lifted into the anchor point.

    One of the concerns here is the structural integrity of the tree.

    Not being on the ground, it all looks good from my armchair
