Talking trees and Educated Climber podcasts meet for an excellent conversation between Dan and Patrick. Dan talks about how his career began, the motivation behind creating ClimbingArborist.com, Dan's Lyme disease, Patrick's

This was an idea Dave had for about 20 years, and it was heavily focused on determining injuries, what the best course of action is, what is paramount to be done in the tree and what injuries can be dealt with once on the ground.

Dan shares his experiences from a competitior, and Dave shares his thought about the organization and what he saw througout the weekend.

We also talk about the systems we had to use during the competition, always being on two indepentent climbing systems (or using a backup), and when and how this might become the standard in arboriculture. 

Thanks to all of those who but time, effort and money into making the aerial rescue competition the huge success that it was.
