These pics are dark but a new camera is coming soon! This is a Robinia (Locust) that I removed. It was totally choked by ivy. It is like climbing through a jungle. Ivy on trees is very bad. This tree had been checked with a resistograph and was too hollow to be considered safe........ so I climbed it in order to remove it. Tree failure is where this job scares me. I have faith in my climbing systems, but a tree is an unknown and if it fails while you are in it......
