100% tie in is important for safety, from the time we leave the ground, until we return. We use advanced techniques to place our ropes from the ground into a desired crotch. Before the ascent a thorough inspection of the ground, the trees base, and its stems is performed. We also look for hazards above such as power lines, bees and other unfriendly animals that may be high up in the canopy. This procedure is critical to ensure a safe work environment for our selves, our customers and the general public.
Two tie in points are used while working aloft, this helps the climber maintain a good position so that he can make desired cuts. This also protects him/her from a fall if they were to accidentally cut the rope with any of the sharp tools that are used. High Climbers performs spur less climbing on most trees to be trimmed, especially the thin barked species. Thick barked trees can tolerate climbing spurs, however we prefer to use new methods that allow access to the tree with out the use of them.
When working aloft, a safe, experienced Arborist is constantly checking his safety equipment, life line, and the tree to maintain his personal safety. The ground crew assists the Arborists by providing them with necessary tools, controlling ropes to lower limbs, and to keep bystanders out of the danger zone. After all the tasks are done, he takes one last look, reroutes his rope, and repels from the tree at an effortless pace safely to the ground. A safe, efficient crew is truly beneficial to High Climbers and You.

As trees get older, they become more susceptible to wood decay and other defects.
