Frankly, I’m much less concerned about the atmosphere than I am out our water supply. While I am incredibly lucky to live in a place with an abundance of water very few places do. What I see happening on the west coast of the US with water and the battle between food production and other human uses is just the start of the problems on our content and other parts of the world are already in more critical situations.
I’m 100% with you there Gary. If I ever won the lottery you’d find me in Africa digging water well on my dime.

A kid I went to HS with got a degree in Geology and Environmental Sciences told me water is where it's at. Our natural resources won't keep pace with our growing population.

People with vagitosis will say "you just hate people of color"

Really doesn’t look like a lot of fun but I bet the tree guys will have some good ideas. If it was mine to have to cut down I’d try to get some kind of a hold back on the uprooted one with some come alongs and cable so I could cut the stump free. Then let back on the hold back to let but to ground and use a tractor hooked to the cable to pull it out of the other tree. But not being right there looking at it is hard, I also would probably call my tree service buddy to come assess it for me.

Can I ask why you have to get it down?
It is in a location where we walk, and don't like uncertainty when I can prevent it. I would rather take it down than it cause dominoes as that area gets quite wet during the rainy season. And one down controlled, is much better than two in a tangled mess. I really don't like to cut live trees. Open to any suggestion.

It is right along a seasonal stream, and tractors can get pretty stuck down in my valley. If there was a place to pull it sideways off the other tree, so if it fell it would maintain the same pull line length, I would. But it is an uphill young pine forest in that direction. I can take more pictures if a view is needed.

I think I,d be wearing a diaper when I was felling that carnage 🤔
Thought you did all the time anyway

Plain and simple
Don’t walk there

Some of us don't spend all day on the couch. I will walk there, the tree will come down. Just checking to see if anyone had some ideas I hadn't thought of.

Also, there are no pros in my easy chair, as that is my favorite rest area.

No climbing experience I assume?
