Swipe through to see the before and after shots of these two old apples that needed renovating. Certified arborists @krystnparmley and @bendelaney got after it yesterday in the cold! 🙂
Sometimes when trees need to be taken down we are able to repurpose them as wildlife snags. These dead trees are incredibly important features within natural forests as well as the urban environment as they provide habitat for a variety of creatures (including the bats we hope will inhabit those slats on the front side of this one).
The very next day after @bendelaney made this snag, a young eagle came to check it out! (Last slide)
A few moments with our crew at the massive project we are working on at @downrivergolfcourse for @spokaneparks. Unfortunate to see so many large pines lost to bark beetle, but great to be able to work with such a great team to get it all cleaned up.
Team work to achieve house clearance yesterday morning.

A little laughter to re-energize the crew. Thanks @bubbzayren24 for being silly and strong at the same time.
As the weather keeps getting warmer a nice patch of shade is ever welcoming.

Tree climbing competitions are a great place to learn new techniques, meet new people of all skill levels and be in a supportive environment. A few of our employees went on a road trip to Idaho so they could compete and hang out for an eventful weekend.
All this rain has done wonders to all life. It awoken some new friends in this yard of Spirit Pruners chips.

Spirit Pruners is featured on the recent Rock to Roots podcast, which highlights land management and conservation practices. I was honored to chat with Hilary Sepulveda and Duane Zbranek on their show!
Waiting patiently as the sun warms our skin from the outside as it reaches within. Energy harvested and used wisely. #arborist #climbing #arboristofinstagram #arboriculture
The snow will soon melt away and seep into the soil, quenching the thirst of our earthly companions.
Winter allows us to see a deciduous trees full form and make impactful structural pruning cuts that can correct foliage hidden defects.
