Yeah it's the most fun thing to do in my opinion even more fun than climbing, I've been doing it a lot with dead trees recently. Although negative rigging a top and letting it run comes close to it.

Great work August, occasionally we get pine plantations with red pines that are a hard pine and sturdy like those firs, 50 feet shorter in the Midwest:) The GRCS would prove useful in this application. I consider Greg Good a friend so I’m partial:) Thanks for all the great angles, the beautiful views all around you are awesome!
