Ted wanted the tree felled as soon as possible and when the rainy weather eased, Gil agreed to bring a team to have a go at it.
‘You’ll need to take care,’ he warned the men. ‘Trees like these are known as “widowmakers”. They can drop branches without much warning. So if I yell “Run!” then you move away from it as fast as you can. Right?’ Things started well and the men worked up a sweat, using their axes to chop out the base of the massive trunk. They were all learning to fell trees, a necessa
...ry skill here.
Gil mostly left them to it, because they had to learn to do this sort of thing without him. He kept a careful eye on their progress, however. He didn’t trust the bigger trees.
They were nearly there, ready for the tree to fall in the direction they’d planned when suddenly there was a loud crack and one of the big lower branches shuddered. As everyone knew, branches like this could weigh a ton, especially after a rainy period, so Gil yelled, ‘Run!’ at the top of his voice.
