The grade decided the method here. A lift needs level ground to set its outriggers on, and this property did not have any. So the work was climbed, with pole saws off ladders wherever a full climb was not worth the setup.
The job was view restoration. The canopy was raised — low limbs off, sightline opened, the trees themselves left standing and healthy. New growth coming up into the view was cut out, and everything taken stayed inside the TVA guidelines that govern what may be cut on ground like this.
Brush went to a woodline the homeowner picked out. Worth saying plainly: it was not chipped and it was not hauled, because that is where the owner asked for it to go.
The last piece was a set of limbs hanging over ground the owner intends to park on. Those came off now, while there is still nothing underneath them to damage. It is the cheap version of that job.
One day, one crew, and nothing on site bigger than a work truck.
