Yesterday's job

We worked for a client just outside of Eagle River, WI yesterday.  We took down two Northern Red Oaks in a forested lot for a homeowner.  It was great.  The take-downs were not just easy up and down climbs.  I was glad to have had my GRCS so that I could pull one of them over after climbing it and removing all but the really dead and decayed top.  The other was a shaped like a banana.  It had HEAVY forward lean.  We got it down and had a couple of hours of moving the wood to a wood shed using a sled and gravity because it was on a hill.  The knee deep snow made gators a must and the sledding was much easier and efficient than hauling it any other way. The whole job took ten hours.  I feel fortunate to have clients up here.  Not every tree service in the Northwoods has been able to work in this environment.  We love it though.
