What kind of trouble you got chief? I removed one myself today.

Tools used.

2 steel wedges
1 steel Chisel
1 chainsaw
1 40lb pry bar
1 20 hammer
1 six pack of beer.

I was done in 2 hours. Tied more streamers for Doughty's swap.

It is about a 35' tall aspen that was pushing on a vinyl fence. It got notched but is showing signs of cracking upward. It is about 12 years old and climbing it isn't an option in my book. I think it needs a bucket lift so you can start at the top.

Chris if you can....take a picture of the tree base and the fence. Just wondering how much room there is to work with.
Where is the tree located? Back or Front. I brought one down today roughly the same size. I used an extension ladder
to tie off as high as I could and cut it in thirds. I strapped a rope on each section coming down as I cut it down. The
top 1/3 will be the hardest cause it has more give. Once you have that one down the rest is easy.
Yeah you'll need another guy to do this.
