    Normally I aspire to the "if you don't have anything nice to say..." attitude, but when they start chopping at the branches of a living tree just because it might hit their lights up top, I gotta call 'lame'.

    I'm curious what the answer is. Why'd they need to hack it up instead of just holding it over the top of the trucks?

    The rest of it looks like some good wheeling and a fun day.

    Seemed like a legitimate question to me. I can see moving a dead tree off the road, but this was just a wash and you guys were hacking off a large live branch to clear some lights. Just looking for some justification here is all, no need to tell people to give it a rest. You posted the video.

    well i dont see anything wround in cutting a branch,its not like we are cutting the complete tree, it doesnt hurt it at all.

    every thing in moderation is not bad.

    there are people like you guys that take it to the extreme, with out thinking if its in fact bad. , reminds me of PETA , and other conservation fanatics that trying to close complete acces to the texas Pins , beach.

    also i cant believe im even discussing this LOL ,,every one cuts branches of trees, in their back yards etc,,,

    man,,,,,,,,,,! in fact I just dont care to discuss this and waste my time. ,your entiteled to your own opinion , so be it, .

    Thanks for the clarification, I agree with your first 2 points, but that last point is way off base IMO.

    I'm no extremist, I just think hacking a branch over a wash because you might hit your lights is lame. It doesn't hurt it at all??? Huh? Ok, try cutting all the branches off and see how long it lives. "That tree didn't want that branch there anyway, it didn't need it."
    That's the kind of fodder that gives the exxtremists grounds for closing things. Just edit out that part and it's a fine video. I'll pretend I never saw it.
