Broken hanging branch removed in Veenendaal
In Veenendaal today I removed a high broken branch that posed a hazard. The branch was broken, but not completely and was hanging down. In the event of a current, this branch could fall uncontrollably onto the street, onto people or cars. With a catapult I attached my climbing line high in the tree and climbed it with the single rope technique (Single Rope Technique or SRT). For work I switched to the Double Rope Technique. Everything is secured in such a way that I always have two hands free to work with.
There was a strong wind. This caused the tree to move back and forth considerably. But hey, that just made it more fun!
