    TEXT VERSION OF TITLE SLIDE:

    Title: Wedging Trees with Back Lean:
    Type: Text Slide
    Content:

    • Determine the height of the tree. This can be estimated quite accurately using one of these methods:
      • Pro-Sight method
      • Clinometer method
      • Axe Handle method
         
    • Determine the diameter (not circumference) of the tree at breast height using a tape.

    • Determine the number of segments in the tree by dividing the height (in feet) by the diameter (in feet).
      • Example: a 100 foot tree 24 inches in diameter (2 feet) would yield 50 segments (100 divided by 2)
      • Example: a 100 foot tree 12 inches in diameter (1 foot) would yield 100 segments (100 divided by 1)
         
    • Determine the amount of back lean (in feet) by plumbing the tree.
