Men,
I Am putting together a list of safety instructions for new tree-workers.. and maybe put some basic safety tips together for new climbers...
I was thinking of the following areas... any other areas you might suggest or specific things that should be mentioned in any area would be appreciated.. Is there some reference material available on this subject?
Thanks,
Daniel
