Tree Assessment and Felling Plan

What happens here

The video introduces the main project: felling a large, dangerous tree that is leaning towards the cabin and a row of other trees, which could potentially hit a neighbor's cabin. This initial phase involves a visual inspection of the tree's lean and height to determine the safest felling direction. The risks associated with a "rocking chair" effect (where the base kicks back after the cut) are discussed, highlighting the need for controlled felling. The plan is to pull the tree one way with a truck and push it the other way with a skid steer to control the fall.

Goal: Determine the safest direction to fell the tree and mitigate risks.
