Simple Tree Trimming Trick

Need to remove a branch that’s just out of reach of your pole trimmer or shears? Tie a rope to each end of a camping saw (available at most outdoors stores) and throw one rope over the limb. Alternately pull each end of the rope until you cut through the limb. Make two cuts as shown, and keep well away from electrical lines.
