Felling a big cottonwood:

I set up a 4:1 MA using 300 ft of 1/2in Stable Braid. The double sheave pulley attached to 150 ft of 5/8ths Stable Braid. The 5/8ths redirected through a block placed at a height of 25ft and attached to sections of the trunk. We then used my F-350 to pull 10-20ft sections of trunk 50-70ft into a "nature preserve". By far the most tension I've ever placed on a rope. Unfortunately, there's no video of the pull. These photos explain more about the job though.
