Summer Fashions
Here's the latest in summer fashions for fallers. They were grinning because that tree has to come down and I asked if anybody remembered how to fall that size of a tree. The guy on the right was actually wearing chaps today while falling. We were wandering about looking at old trees that were going to be a hazard to work around, and I was slapping paint on them so they could be felled. The ones to cut had dead tops which were liable to come down on folks working below.
Here's my blue mark of doom.
And, finally, their rig has quite a debate on the side. You can't see it here but there is an ongoing debate that is etched in different layers of Wash Me, then No, another layer and Wash me, and NO...
I couldn't hang around to watch the big tree come down. He had to drop trees to make room and I had to go mark more danger trees and then go and
see if it was possible to get high centered on snow so we could warn the tourists. I also checked out the response time of a co-worker with a winch.
Response time was acceptable and the winch passed the test.
