Last years storm bent my cedar tree.

:hmm:So, got Raptor Ready for :uhoh2: Cedar Tree Pull.

And now, :birgits_tiredcoffeeI have a straight up cedar tree. :happy107:

Gives a whole new meaning for a :naughty: straight woodie
or . . a woodie that's straight . . :smoke2:


The Cedar is tied off until it takes a 'new set'.

Cedar trees are shallow rooted so the pull was easy.
If you ever try this, be sure you have the opposite side tied off.
This is a safety for,
If you pull over center . . the tree will not come down on your truck.

The white strap is an Erickson 3" X 30' rated at 35,000 lb.
the yellow strap is a tie down with a break strength at 10,000 lb.

You are the only person I have heard of that works to save a cedar tree. Whatever floats your boat though, so good work.
