Tree Removal from Historic "Boys in the Boat" Shell House

The story of the 1936 Boys in the Boat is rooted in the Pacific Northwest. It also happens to be a favorite story of Peter's and an amazing tale of teamwork and dedication. The historic events of those Olympic games may not have a lot of similarities to taking down trees but the parallels cannot be overstated.
Follow along as Peter brings out the crane for one last job with Moi in the tree. Watch Arne, Keaton and Loel expertly manage the debris on the ground with the grapple. Catch a little of the tale of the Boys in the Boat as we remove a tree, killed by beavers, from the historic University of Washington Shell House.
With its scenic Husky stadium in the background, nestled along the shore of Lake Washington, you'll see the dedication of both crews, the rowers of 1936 and the arborists of Seattle Tree Care. You'll witness history and the teamwork required to finish on top.

Forests are life in the paradise of mother Earth's kingdom! However, some trees are close to residences, which is worrying.🙌🇺🇸

Life sustaining, its true. That is why we try to save a tree before considering removal. As you stated though, sometimes the danger to people or structures is determining factor for removal.

@@shawntrevordaniel What are you talking about?! Poplar is used in a lot of furniture for inner structure or as substrate for veneer!

@@OldsmobileCutlass1969Va It is used for those purposes because it would be “wasteful” to use “good” wood in places such as the interior of drawers, dressers etc. Poplar (usually aspen, not cottonwood like we have in the video) is a cheap, mostly undesirable wood that really isn’t good for much of anything other than pulp or being used as “interior” wood in furniture or as filler for a more desirable top veneer. There is more than enough of it floating around out there…it’s not necessary to save every piece of knarled, knotty wood from a tree like this.

@OldsmobileCutlass1969Va this isn't the hardwood poplar on the east coast. This is PNW Lombardy poplar - the wood is super soft, super wet, and hardwood in name only. It's pretty much worthless.
