Today in Oosterbeek. Two very tall Norway spruces. Unfortunately, the little letterpress beetle has also taken these trees. One tree was already completely dead. The other very bad.
A windy day. Extra exciting to climb a thin, tall dead Norway spruce.
When I arrived at the top, the wind had increased to such an extent that I had difficulty standing steady before sawing off the top due to the swinging of the tree.
Moreover, there was a vulnerable tent under the trees and there was only a small spot to expose all the branches and trunk parts.
I therefore had to lower the tops on a rope. At the top of the tree I switched to the other tree and safely and carefully cut both trees into small pieces at the same time.
After felling, I used my stump grinder to grind away the stumps to a depth of approximately 20 centimeters. More than enough to cover with tiles or to create a garden. The remaining roots slowly rot away.
Below is a photo report of the work.
