Be wise in how you manage your trees. Fear-based tree butchering WILL make your trees safer…but it comes at a huge cost. Hire a real arborist that can improve the safety of your trees while NOT destroying the value of your tree. #isacertifiedarborist #boardcertifiedmasterarborist #arborist #elniño 15 Oct 2026 Do you wrap your rope when you’re doing a descent on the Unicender? 10 Oct 2026 Welp, looks like cats out of the bag. Its on. Reflex vs the Shift. I’ve had the Reflex for a few months now. Don’t climb on it enough for it to slip yet, so MINE is great. But several employees on my crew got major slippage probs with it. Petzl, ball is in your court. May the better device prevail! 05 Oct 2026 Found this book in a box of stuff today. It was printed around the time I started climbing, and it’s been updated many times over the years and is still available today. If you’re a newer climber, get off YouTube for a minute, put down your Tik toks 👴🏻 and buy this book! 30 Sep 2026 You think this will kill this little tree? Pulled from a client’s yard in 2011. Destined for the chipper. I decided to try and make a bonsai out of it. I spent 2 whole minutes making the video. Details are sparse. Ask me questions in the comments! #isacertifiedarborist #boardcertifiedmasterarborist #certifiedarborist #bonsai #chionanthusretusus 12 Sep 2026 We just got word that the Oaks on Toolen Place at Muir are safe (for now). The district will not remove them as part of their soil remediation project - a testament to the power of the community who has done so much to protect and advocate for these trees. The bad news is that the district still plans to cut them down as part of a pool construction project which will advance in the coming months. The fight continues, but today we are coming down from the Oaks, resting, and celebrating 💚 Thank you for showing up for these trees! 04 Aug 2026 Last week PUSD voted to exempt themselves from the City’s Tree Protection Ordinance, opening the door for them to cut down any trees without permits or repercussions. As Pasadena’s largest landowner, the school district still has an opportunity to be a good steward of the 5,000 trees on their campuses. We are holding out hope that Superintendent Blanco listens to public concern and to expert opinion and spares the remaining trees. This is a somber moment for us. This community has worked tirelessly, and many have put themselves on the line to protect these trees. Their fate now rests in the hands of PUSD, a public institution which has too often shown indifference—and at times outright disregard—for the trees. We must continue to hold them accountable. 22 Jul 2026 I’ve been posting a lot in my stories about these trees at the Pasadena schools. It’s about 200 trees. The school district got a report that said the soil was contaminated (no arguments there) from the nearby 2025 Eaton Canyon fires. Their solution is to cut all the trees down so they can extract and replace the soil. This is literally the dumbest thing. THE SOIL CAN BE REMEDIATED WITHOUT CUTTING THE TREES DOWN. They need to look at low pressure hydro extraction of the top layer of soil, and instantly replacing with clean soil to encapsulate the contaminated soil deeper below and protect the student from being exposed to this contamination. They clearly listened to the soil remediation team, but did NOT consult with arborists trained to preserve trees while working around them. A tree climbing event was held yesterday - organized by Friends of the Pasadena Unified School District Trees - to raise awareness about this issue. @latimes was there and wrote this article I screenshotted so you guys can read it. Go see all the awesome pics on their website. If you’re the kind of person to DO something- contact someone at the PUSD school board and tell them to find a way to remediate the soil without removing the trees. @pasadenaunified Listen to the people! The students and community at these Pasadena schools are about to lose a lot of shade, beauty, natural habitat that CANNOT be replaced. Huge shout out to @pasadenatreepreservation @chaney.trail.corridor @wertreelovers @fe.treecare @sabinehoppner and everyone else for trying to not let that happen. (Side note: the article references a 100 ft tall Aleppo pine. As an arborist I have to clarify it’s a Canary Island pine 🤭 The last 2 pics aren’t from the article. They are my own. This is Paloma, the student I guided up this pine. The arms out pose is inspired by @julia_butterfly_hill_official when she was in Luna ) #arborist #treehuggers #pasadena 19 Jul 2026 SHROOMS! If you’re an arborist you need to learn everything you can about how mushrooms affect wood on the trees we manage. If you know NOTHING about them, this video will get you started! #isacertifiedarborist #boardcertifiedmasterarborist #arborist #mushrooms 27 Jun 2026 Do you run a tree service? What equipment would you bring to cut down this erythrina? Was probably 50 ft tall, 60 ft wide, and no targets at all (just going over this dried out lawn). I’d love to know how much a project like this costs the LA City tax payers. And for the record, those San Vicente corals need water. STAT. 24 Jun 2026 GEAR CHECK 2026 was a smashing success! If you’re an arborist, you should be inspecting your climbing gear before every climb. But…let’s be honest…this isn’t always happening…and if it does, it’s not a true deep dive inspection…AND I’ve noticed climbers tend to be. Much more critical of OTHER climbers’ gear, and more accepting of questionable spots on their own equipment. So once a year we lay all the gear out, then swap inspectors so no one is inspecting their own stuff…and we always find SOMETHING. Have a look at some of the finds from this year. Some are no brainers. Some are judgement calls. Look at the list and comment below! 1. Cracks in a helmet. Admittedly it was a second/backup helmet. Should we retire it? 2. Frayed end of @yalecordage Blue Moon. How would you have handled that one? 3. Damaged strands on Blue Moon. Should we retire it? 4. Damaged strands on Kernmaster BiFrost. Should we retire it? 5. Stuck carabiner. Should we retire it? 6. Weird bump in the core of 11mm Confetti? Would you have cut the rope? 7. A weird meskin. Should we retire it? 8. Akimbo by @rockexotica.usa @porkbrick should we retire it? 9. At our company we use Yale Prism as a light rigging line. What does this damage say to you? 10. Cutting off that last 5 ft of the Prism. Would you keep rigging with this? Go check your gear. Tag me if you find something good! #certifiedarborist #gearinspection #arborist #treeclimber #treeclimbinggear 18 Jun 2026 A root crown excavation that you can do yourself if you’re willing to get a little dirty! If you can’t see a root flare, contact an arborist to talk you through if your tree actually needs it (answer is probably yes) and more importantly- HOW to do it. It could be the most important thing anyone ever does for your tree! #certifiedarborist #arborist #rootflare #boardcertifiedmasterarborist # 14 Jun 2026
