I'm 67 and out of time for what you do. I could never climb like that anyway... I get terrified being up high off the ground. I still ride my big Harley Street Glide tho!

Tim you are as young as you feel you are. I’m 60 and still climbing, not every day but still getting it done. Nice work.

I know the age thing catches up to us all. I’m 57 and still climbing every day. It hurts a little more but I still enjoy it. I hope to keep going another 3 years.

I'm 38 with sciatic nerve issues. I climb depending on the jobs I'm probably in 8 or 9 trees a week. Sometimes more. I know it'll be a day when I have to get a lift and do smaller trees I guess until I can stack enough money to retire if my mind will let me lol

I’m in my early 40’s and started climbing doing removals in my small community…. I price for the job not the time it takes, let’s me work at my own pace and enjoy it without the pressure to produce for a company… as I get older I’ll just slow down a bit more untill my body says stop. ……and I’m 235lb’s before I strap on my gear and a saw… even a 8” poplar top feels like cooked spaghetti to me 🤣

i'm pretty much in the same place. Ive been doing part time sub contract ground work and some solo removals/lot clean up. Just purchased climbing gear and have been slowly working towards starting to do more jobs on my own. I'm a bigger guy as well, late 40's though. Good luck and stay safe!

@@VeteranTreeService everything becomes easy when you do it all day every day if not your doing something wrong or need to work harder building up your core strength. Nothing is hardwork for pros only dangerous dead trees make things hard 👍👍

Do you see a bucket truck or a spider in your future when you decide to stop climbing?

🤔 maybe. More likely will hire a younger climber.
