Well, I made 2 days of profit for one days worth of work. Sweet. Took down the four 90' sycamores, from left to right. Had a 60' lift, but it blew a hose, so i got a 80' lift to get the job finished up. All the chips and wood stayed. Gonna toss my guys a couple hundred extra today for there hard work.

Why not just use your bucket?
We stuffed the big white pines brush into the chipper truck and another dead one as well, she was loaded!:msp_tongue:
The ice surely does have some real bad slushy areas. Not a ride I would want to take at night or in a snowstorm. I always feel like a criminal turning a nice sawlog into biscuits.
Hey Devon, you know Mike Shultz by any chance? he has a decent size barge, and does a lot of work on Go Home - septic beds, construction, etc. A couple of years ago at the same place, we did a bunch of pines on the lake side, flopped them into the lake, and Mike fished them out with his excavator on the barge. Took them down the lake ways, then he offloaded them to get burnt for campfire wood. A lot of fun; slow barge ride on Go Home on a nice summer day!

Dammit, still learning how to post pics from this tablet. This work?
Nothin like easing back into the season with a 100ft co-dominant Pinus Strobus. I honestly couldn't lift the 357 one more time, wayyyy outta climbing shape! lol
They do this up my way a lot as well. Build a mulity million dollar cottage among the towering hemlocks or pines and then call me in a few years later to remove all the dead ones.
The job was over a hour away, so i thought i would save fuel and use the contractors lift. You cant see it in the pic, but they are replaceing the bridge that goes over the creek, just behind the trees. My bucket is only 55' tall so i would have had to do a lot of climbing. I could have did 1 maybe 2 trees, but not all 4, so i figured it would be alot faster with a lift. I also priced it with the cost of the lift included.
Nice, just needs a plow! What year/price?
