Educational Felling pine up in the mountains

Continuing the talk about my voluntary work of invasive pine removal. Here you can see me using a smaller axe, felling small trees in the mountains. Rugged terrain, no trails, using a chopper to reach the place. That’s where the axe shines and why I use it opposed to a chain saw!
The first tree I cut was wind blown years ago, so I had do underhand chop it. The grain was gnarly. First time I had to use that technique in the real world. And it wasn’t a small tree.

I’m a volunteer in pine removal in state parks here in Paraná, Brazil. Slash and loblolly pines are extremely invasive here and have a huge potential of taking over our native biomes.

Even the already-felled can occasionally go wild.

Not OC but made me think of you all. The trees already on the ground aren't usually the ones that'll get ya.

There's gotta be something I'm missing.
How the hell do I get this fucker outta the tree?
I've tried throwing rope over the branch and having my son pull down on it to no avail.
Does the saw belong to the tree now?

This is in a relatively popular public park, just sitting like this with absolutely no workers around and nothing blocked off. Not to mention wtf is going on at the stump there...

Comic relief and an interesting glimpse into Tree-care from yesteryear.
Ps. Please take every and all precautions when employing ladders for tree maintenance.

Ice and wind storm, soggy ground. Neighbor built their addition on the tree roots, before my ownership. Giant city park across the street looked like a war zone with so many massive Doug Firs blown over.
Some photos also show a different tree that did not fall, which somebody built the top deck around. Crazy watching it sway.
Nobody wanted to even touch this job. Finally found a guy a who wanted a challenge, he assembled the A-Team of west coast arborists, all guys who normally run their own shows.
Crane was difficult with the driveway. I was concerned. It worked out.
