    I think he's taking the whole thing down. He's been up there every night until dark, and all day today.
    Yesterday, he burned the pile he had accumulated, then he removed the branches that were hung up on the way down.
    Today he's been cutting more small stuff and removing the ends of the branches a little at a time.


    The trees in the background make it tough to see how much of the small stuff he has removed.

    Midway on the ladder, you can see the end of a big branch he removed, it was in the way when he tossed stuff down, so he removed it.

    You know what kind of tree it is? I can't really tell that much from the growth pattern but it looks like maybe a cottonwood?

    I need a better camera. :anonymous:
    It's an Elm. They are really close in appearance when they are bare.

    Nice! I am not familiar with the growth pattern on an Elm tree so that is good to see.

    Elm trees, the branches tend to go up.
    Cottonwoods, go all over the place. Notorious for self pruning too.

    Yeah Cottonwood trees are pretty much a weed anyways. My Ash trees like to prune themselves in windy conditions. :D

    I'm not sure. He did another tree in the backyard of the house on the right during the fall.
    There are a ton of arborists in this area. For all I know he does it as a hobby. He spends hours stringing ropes and then swinging on them.
    I wish I had a webcam to set up.
