Thank you Geneva Point and all the other feedbacks! Gonna be fun watching these guys take these white pines down...They be big! He's got a "chipper" that can do a 15" diameter tree...Seems extraordinary to my little brain.

I had Bartlett (of Wolfeboro) direct Maple and Hemlock chips to a low point on our lot. It was gratifying to watch a "free" load of mulch returned to the soil from which it came. (Supervisor and arborist Kirk Titus is a NH native—and Brewster Academy alumnus).

For the do-it-your-selfer:

For $15, Ocean State Job Lot has these very light weight, aluminum extension pole handles, maybe 20'-long, designed for cleaning the bottom of a swimming pool.

For $25, Walmart has a Fiskars tree trimmer, hand saw, extension pole .... about 15' long

With a little tinkering, the two can be combined together which will make a hand saw with a 30' reach, good for trimm'n tree limbs way up there, while you stand on the ground.

A pine limb only takes about five saw strokes before it snaps, and comes down fast. Happens every time with pine.

An oak limb takes maybe 100-strokes and will not come down until sawed all the way through.

A bicycle helmet and eye protection glasses/googles is recommended for your personal safety, while you never leave the safety of standing on the ground ..... unless you need some extra height, or extra waterfront out reach, by standing up top of a big step-ladder, as well.

And, be aware of overhead electric lines!

Oh yeah, and then you is left with a big pile of tree limbs you need to lose ....... holy smokes ...... like, who knew this would happen?
