This was Fridays job.
Traversing/speedline (for those who’ve never done it) is the same to conventional tree rigging in that you have to be well organised and systematic in order for the technique to be worthwhile. A little patience is generally needed to start with but as the tree begins to open up it can be relatively easy and predictable work. Knowing when and when not to, to start with takes experience though….and when attempted by an inexperienced crew can look a total shambles.
Tall tree’s obviously give you a good advantage….and while not a tall one by any means, this beech was in an elevated position relative to the landing. Thanks
