Eleven jobs, one shoreline

Recent work around the Lake of the Ozarks.

These are our own job photos, not stock. The order runs the way the work actually goes: up in the canopy first, then the storm damage that brought us out in the first place, and last the ground crew putting the yard back the way they found it.

Up in the canopy

Most of the cutting happens above the truck, not beside it.

A Colt Tree Service climber rappelling down a rigging rope against a cloudy Ozark sky
Coming down the same rope he went up on.
A Colt Tree Service climber and a bucket truck operator taking the final section off a large trunk
Trunk sections come down one cut at a time, never dropped whole.
A Colt Tree Service climber working from a bucket, cutting back a leafy oak
Crown work from the bucket when the tree allows it.
An orange spider lift and crane lifting a cut trunk section clear of a lake house roof
Lifted clear of the roofline before it ever starts to fall.

When the call comes after a storm

This is what a crew finds on arrival, before anything gets cleared.

A large fallen limb across a deck and roof, Lake of the Ozarks visible behind
What we found waiting on arrival.
A big fallen tree stretched across a lakefront yard after a storm
Down overnight, cleared before the day was out.

Back at ground level

The part of the job nobody asks about: what the yard looks like after.

A cleared lakefront property, gravel drive graded with the lake behind it
Cleared and graded, ready for whatever comes next.
Protective mats laid across a lakefront yard while the Colt Tree Service crew works
Mats down first, so the yard survives the job too.
The Colt Tree Service crew clearing brush along a canal bank
Brush cleared bank to bank before the truck leaves.
Two Colt Tree Service bucket trucks parked in the yard at dusk
Back in the yard after the last job, trucks parked up.

Bucked down to length before any of it leaves the property.
