To Fell a Tree by Jeff Jepson

Many tree workers have started learning their careers with the information contained in this handy manual of techniques, equipment, and safety information. This is the book we recommend as a guide for new employees, rec climbers, and tree workers, due to it's clarity and the high quality of the written descriptions and illustrations. The Tree Climber's Companion is the best-selling pocket reference for tree climbing techniques, equipment selection, and provides instruction on basic methods of entering the tree, working safely, and getting back down. A great guide for beginners who want to get started with the safest and most modern equipment and techniques, or old-timers looking to learn some new tricks. This guide is one of the best sources for learning about the equipment featured in this catalog. No book can replace hands-on instruction, but the Tree Climber's Companion makes a great for manual to aid in the training of new recruits.
