Nothing too crazy... 10 cuts.. And it does clearly show many of the advantages of tying off near the balance point ... better ability to steer the piece with the hinge, reducing shock loads (less movement after seperation) There was no room to let many of the pieces run, better ground clearnace, and easier handling of the piece by groundies. ...
Going spikeless made the limb walking much easier. Up and down in an hour..
There is also one cut on another tree at the end of the video. Peter Fixler was the climber. Lowering line was set and tied off from the ground.
