Couple years ago SWMBO wanted 2 medium size trees taken down. Plenty of room between house & garage, but wanted to be sure not to damage anything. Set with up 1 in by 100 ft rope, tied about 15 ft up on tree, through a snatch block at base of another tree, then back to hitch on 4wd van. Re-check set up, line of pull toward snatch block will drop tree safely in snowbank, van will be approx 75 ft away on dry concrete driveway. Cut out notch in tree, gave clear instructions- when I yell PULLL, GET ON IT. next 3 sounds were PULLLLL, VROOOOOOOOMMMMMM, CRASH!!!!
