Emphasis on tree pruning is dangerous. It makes me cringe when I see homeowners put a 20' ladder into a tree. I've been in the tree business for over 15 years. With all the dangerous equipment we use, I've seen more and worse accidents from ladders than any other piece of equipment. You need one hand for the ladder, one for the saw and one for the limb you are cutting. Any way you spin it; you're one hand short. Nice article. Emphasis on tree pruning is dangerous.
