Hello my friends Has been a while since I have been on here and just thought I would post up a couple of videos to show what I have been up to for 47 days of the Summer. Sure is nice to be back home...now I have to get caught up on honey-do's and tree jobs

That first video is badass to the core -- can't say I ever felled a tree that was spitting fire out of the face cut!

I see you are using a blue wedge. On the last one, had you paired it up with a pink wedge, instead of a yellow one, the harmony would be balanced and the tree would have behaved.:msp_biggrin:

And, I was about to throw things at the screen during the last part of the first video, but then you read my mind and used your hardhat to scoop up water! But I'm just a B-Bucker..still...:msp_smile:

How come nobody uses The Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairies or other peaceful happy tunes for background music? Must be a copyright thing.

Hope all is well and back to normal.

I'll have to try the pink wedge with the next dicey snag I cut Patty:msp_wink:

I planned to use my hard hat all along to put out that fire...I actually put quite a few out that way...at least cooled them off so that I could fall them. I thought about leaving my helmetcam attached to test if it really was waterproof, but I decided not to go there

The music is a tough one for me...I was using whatever youtube would supply so as not to get into trouble...I get into that enough!

Just chillaxin Been home for a few days, and I think it is about time for me to stop being a lazy cull!

Oh yeah, extra points to you for keeping the mc trail clear:msp_thumbup:

Dude, that mc trail was awesome! Not only would it be a blast to ride a bike down, but it saved our asses by giving us a nice way in and out of the bottom of that drainage.

I'd call it more of a transition back to normalcy. The Fire Organization used to drive me insane. Or insaner.

And then the black stuff continues to come out the nose for a while...bleahhh. :msp_ohmy:

And I forgot to say thanks for posting your videos.

Good stuff, Cody. Made my eyes burn and my throat get raw just watching.

Cool beans and the fire tree was over the top. I didn't understand why you took that chunk out of the notch on the strong side, the tree that broke toward the creek.

I'm going to guess it was an attempt at a siswheel to try to keep it out of the creek?

It wasn't an attempt at one, it was one.

Just broke early being a rotten cull tree. Hence the title of the video, "Can't win em all".

Nice job, as a fellow former forest firefighter I can concur with you on many levels and have done my share like that as well, but not as tall here in Ontario as you guys have them there!

Well...none of the rest of us have ever lost a tree. Or had one go sideways. Never happened. Ever. Not this week anyway.

I meant to say it was a siswheel at an attempt to keep it out of the creek. :bang:

I was glad I recognized the cut, I've never seen one being made, only the butt and stump after its over.

It's a good cut to know, like a lot of the other specialty cuts. It doesn't come with a warranty, though.

Here, watch this one, and revel in it's glory! Hahaha

It held nice, and put it where he wanted.
