Hello, I have considerable experience felling trees with chainsaws, but I'm far from being an expert. I've got a fair number of oaks and maples around my yard that I want to trim to let more light in. I don't want to take the trees down completely because I like the way they look. I'm considering learning how to climb trees with ropes to do the work myself, mainly for the challenge this involves. Can anyone suggest a good book(s) on this subject, and let me know if I'm making a big mistake in thinking I can do this myself?
