Hello all, just had a few questions regarding spurs and fliplines. I have many trees in my yard, many cedar trees around 80 - 100 ft tall, and a few doug firs going as tall as 150'. My main question and concern is how high can I climb before worrying about the trunk getting too thin? They are healthy trees with good roots, I am a new but fast learning climber, I trust my equipment, I trust my skills, the problem I keep facing is trusting the tree, lol, I worry I'm going to flip my line and snap the top of the tree off. Any pointers or suggestions? Thanks
