They were out trimming branches from growing into the power lines again and this time I actually got to see them doing it.

I chatted with the operator for a minute. I told him how it looked like it wouldn’t be any fun on a steep hillside. He said there have been times that he’s had to use his winch on the back to lower himself down a steep hill  just reach the branches and then pull himself back up.  

That’s how ya trim branches way up high!
