NOT the BEST way to get the GRAVELY down a 40 foot drop #2

What happens here

Tie a heavy-duty rope securely to the front attachment point of the Gravely Pro-QXT. Extend the rope all the way down the steep incline to the bottom, ensuring it is free of snags. A second person (Frankie in the video) should be positioned at the bottom of the slope to hold the end of the rope. This person will act as a control point, providing resistance and guidance to regulate the speed and direction of the brush cutter's descent. The initial truck-mounted winch was prepared, but for this final step, a manual rope system is used for control.

Goal: Attach a heavy rope to the front of the brush cutter and extend it down the slope, positioning a helper at the bottom to manage tension and guide the equipment's descent.
