Preparing for the Next One (Hagupit?):

Hagupit - Tropical Depression 22W

The damage caused by 27 November storm "Queenie" led us to take the even greater threat posed by  Hagupit very seriously. Once again we had to remove trees that were threatening either our house -or two of our neighbours' houses.

02 December:

Condemmed

Trimming before Felling




Trimming means Debris




...and More Work with more Debris

03 December:

Decapitation

Tree shortened to limit damage when felled


The Team gets Organized




Tie.. Cut.. Pull.. Down!




Number Two Down




Three Down.....




..... and finally number Four




Finished!

Skilled Work!

So much work to do for the team that cleaning up has to be left until Tuesday 9 December. After the danger has hopefully passed without further incident.
