- Tree removal performed by Seattle Tree Care. (previously Treecycle)
This Ulmus americana died of Dutch elm disease and needed to be removed to prevent spread of the disease. All wood was salvaged by Urban Hardwoods. The Elm tree featured in the video was located in the Wallingford Neighborhood of Seattle, WA.

Much respect for the crane operator keeping cuts away from cutters. 👍👍👍
You got that right Peter! Here's to the power of organized teamwork!
You all that ride the sky, have my deepest respect. Stay safe
Much respect indeed!
Still one of my all-time favorite arborist videos. My favorite city in the backdrop of my favorite thing to do.
Amazing work Seattle Crew!!!!
Christopher Morgan we, thank you!
Wow very professional. I like the idea of rigging brush and then saving the big wood for the crane on a job like this. Well done
Thank you Carson we couldn't agree more.
Good equipment = increased efficiency!
Here is to working smarter!
Thank you for keeping everyone safe!
Nice crane work Seattle tree service, like the city backdrop.
Thanks Ace TM we are fans of your work & channel as well!
Top notch climber, crew, and crane. Also great filming quality 🤙🏾 pleasure to watch all that skill come together
WOW! That a TALL TREE! Excellent team work! ❤️🇺🇸❤️
Awesome job! I love that you guys just get the job done, the climber wasnt dinking around with shiny gadgets, just climbing and cutting. love it
Thank you for uploading, this is some top notch footage of some excellent work. Good crew!
awesome, hope one day i can have gears like yours bro...you've got new subscriber bro
Great job from start to finish...hats off the climber👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome enough said I have nothing else to say may God always protect you guys and bless you .
Awesome footage ! Nice team work guys !
Great work, great editing. Greatly enjoyed it.
Wow! Nice video, such a great team effort! I've seen a ton of tree vids but really liked this one!
i heard of this job from a buddy. its cool that it was documented. awesome rigging and team work. would love to learn from a crew like this. 5 stars to a job well done and being safe!
bogg54 not sure what’s to learn from the “crew”. Climber? Yes. Crane operator? Yes.
EauClairePowerWashing yeah since that’s not what happened. Might want to check yourself on the stupid comment.
It’s like saying how much you can learn from power washing. You put brush in the chipper, it chips. You spray water, it cleans.
Each and every other person mentioned the climber and crane operator specifically. Like everyone else always does. Running chainsaws and chipping brush is as mindless and DUMB as power washing. Stick to what YOU know; detergents and spray wands. It must have been really important to include power washing in your name. Now we all know you’re a real workin man.
You lead with direct insults then call me insecure? In tree care there are really two crews. Ground crew, and the people doing the dangerous jobs requiring talent. If you stay on the ground you might as well be running a power washer all day. There is nothing to be said about ground crew.
Very well done!, climber has some experience in craning out tree's but could use a couple of pointer's such as switch to a bigger saw before getting into much larger dia. wood. Also always start your cuts on the same side as the choker is anchored, you did that on most but I think you were off a bit on a couple cuts. Last tip is on the bigger cuts I many times will unclip my saw lanyard and rig it directly to the tree just encase the saw get's pinched and you need to move out of the way for whatever reason quickly, if the saw get's pinched and it is connected to your harness your not going anywhere very quick or maybe not quick enough.

Nice sitting down watching our MAGIC.
GREAT JOB GUYS.
CRANE CRAIN
I have sawn some of that elm, and it makes the most beautiful lumber, but a little hard to dry. Nice job!
Nice work. I had no idea an Elm could get that big!
Nice job, great crane and climb work!!! Greatings from italy
Thanks Daniele! Ciao from Seattle!
great footage and great work. smart approach with the dual trucks.
Gotta love the pic taken at 5.12 nice backdrop. Thats alot of firewood
Superb job! from an ex carpenter, take a bow everybody: Huge respect:
WOW!!! That was totally Awesome! Great camera work.
Brilliant work!! Greetings from Michigan :)
Incredible video, good work. I was wondering why the big log picks weren't balanced with two slings to keep them vertical on the lift?
no reason thanks for watching
Mighty big twig ! Helluva job, boys ! Wish I could've been there to watch.
Good job!
Thanks!
Awesome job Seattle !!! Well done ! Quiet freaky at 6´30 ;-) cheers...
Thank you Thomas! We dig your videos!
Use 2 chokers on the big chunks to avoid the dynamic (side) load on the crane
a bridle configuration indeed!
Took the words out of my mouth.
Not just the big shit....they 1 choked everything....wtf
Smooth work good job guys! Team work great equipment.
Great job man!!!
Thanks Tree Time!
Last, biggest trunk section, so gentle, so professional. 🏆
many thanks
nice video/take down, clean, good flow.
any wood work came out of the big pieces?
the best huge tables very cool!
Dangerous tree taken down well, good climbers & crew.
Thanks for the compliments Robert!
Fine work indeed , one question / concern , why did the climber abandon his lifeline after a certain point relying solely on his sidestrop , 2 tie in points especially on a job like that would have been crucial I would have thought ?
Most people don't use tie in points when topping out trees because your tie in point would have to be below you and is just a waste of time.
richie1014 I thought the same, maybe because he had to cut n turn around the tree idk
@@bryanmiller843 roconddohoe answered the question...
Cause the second line could no longer be tied to top of trunk as it was being cut off. Lots of guys don’t use a second line just a sidestrop or 2
Hi Richie, hope I can answer this for you based on my knowledge of doing tree work and being a climber myself for years running my own company. The gentleman cutting the tree in this video I will assume is the lead climber also the owner of the company. I agree with you on having at least 2 tie in points ideally you want 3, now once he was no longer tie in to the top the tree it leaves him with a few options, one is chocking his life line to the trunk as srt or with a friction saver as drt, but good luck finding a friction saver that would fit the diameter of that tree. You can also use two lanyards as two tie in points as you see this climber did later in the video. Hope this answered your question.
Nice job, nice equipment!
@5:40 He walked that powerhead like he was just out on a Saturday walking the dog...........SWEET!
I am going to show to my support crew as the way a large tree operation should smoothly run... one question- why not bypass cuts on the larger butts during crane removal?
Great work, great photography!
Any word on the DBH diameter and height?
Monster. Nicely done.
Thanks Dan! Appreciate it!
This is such a rad video guys I just came across it!
Great job. Just out of curiosity how come the sling attached to the portawrap was given so much slack causing it go up several feet? Was that done on purpose?
no reason, sorry you all had to see that
Great job.Well done.
amazing crane skill. very smooth
What a job! Video was excellent too
Thank x 2!
I look forward to more from you guys...I appreciate the guys that get there stuff in film for people like me to watch and learn from
Great watch,,, i really no went what in to all that... for all involved.....Smashing job..
Unmatched skill level on this one! No way, I would have attempted this job. We have those big "piss' elms here in the midwest. Just like the one you took down, they were planted up and down streets that were small, and the infrastructure was tight. The LOS (Line of Sight) wiring here was showing, and man, it would have taken all the power out of the block if one of those logs hit it.
Great to watch this video!
Thanks for the props Bill!
Safety first!
Seattle Tree Care ！
Hä ne gahnig was Redist du hast ja noch nicht was gutes zu Sagen(:(:(:(:(:
@@corneliakoelsch3703 thank you!
and great filming!
use 2 slings on opposite sides when cutting logs like that.... it wont tip over they go straight up... just saying might help out wont be so sketchy for climber too
INCREDIBLE JOB.
Awesome team overthere!!

Tree work is no joke! Peace!
Peace!
What a pleasure watching these guys work! How tall was this tree?
120'
Expert level! 👍
amazing, greetings from indonesia
How old was that tree? It had to have been pre-existing when those homes were built to attain that size, right?
Is that Peter doing the removal? Doesn’t he own Seattle tree care!!??!!
If he's not in a crane or on a grapple, he's usually up a tree. You should check out the video "One Cut Tree" on our channel. He did some serious climbing in that one.
Good job.
Thank you - we enjoyed it for sure!
20,000$ might cover it....puttin all the equipment to work plus a climber that good...priceless
Thanks for the comment.
This job cost the customer $6000 dollars

Excellent tree removal...!
Ok, when did they start letting climbers ride the ball in Seattle?
great work :)
I just noticed the idiot walking through the cones at the end. Gotta love those people!
Bloody fucking hell, this is exactly what my daily life looks like. It's like... Why is everyone completely blind to them, whyyyy??? :P

Everything Looks Good But I think if u had a rigger and some radios to communicate with the crane operator would be better.
way better, thanks for the comment.
After a successful day with no close calls, high or low, I’ll bet the crane operator doesn’t pay for a single beer. 🤜🤛
ha ha
That's just fun stuff right there!
Nice work
Nice working 🌲
5:11 You used to be able to see the downtown CBD from here......
What’s cbd?
How much did the removal cost? 7 grand?
Very close, this job was $6k plus tax and that includes grinding the stump out (grinding mulch left ionsite)
Thanks!
Why don't you guys use double choker on the large bottom pieces when placed at opposite sides the load has no choice but to go straight up no movement
Ya. That's a big crane. I didn't see why they would roll the logs more than lifting. But as always. No one hurt is always a good day. They were still smart about it👍
Vince Tervort great point, double tie ins and double chokers are the way to go. We all get to start learning crane work some where and this video is the way I learned to do it but have since improved. Always learning and thanks for watching!
Now that's a tree
Classic Vase Shape - Tall and Majestic Indeed!
I wonder how much did you guys charge for this job

Pro work!
Thank you David!
