Life as a Tree Climbing Bear.

So,  we've been working like madmen as of late. People keep calling so I keep cutting, which is a good thing. Though I may have to take a week or two just to split and stack wood. I'm also about up to my hair line in wood chips.
Not everything has been good in the business. I had to terminate an employee the other day, first time I've ever had to do that it, it was not fun. he just wasn't cut out for the hard manual work that urban forestry is.

Some of the more interesting jobs we've had, seventeen white pine in one yard. A beech tree twenty nine inches in diameter. A weeping cherry and a bald cypress in one yard both more than two stories tall. Now for some pictures.

In the top of a white pine.


The last two of the seventeen white pine in the one backyard that we dropped.

If anyone is interested Kaz is already training to take over the business from me, he's climbing everything and anything. I'm really thinking about getting him a saddle (arborist climbing harness) for his fifth birthday.

Fishing reports will happen when fishing happens.

Keep your powder dry and your tomahawk sharp.
