WILDFIRE MITIGATION ASSESSMENT

PROTECT YOUR
PROPERTY

A standing dead pine holds thousands of pounds of combustible pitch and dry timber. Bark beetles compromise root plates and vascular structures within two seasons. When winds funnel through foothills canyons, untreated canopy and dense ground overgrowth act as primary fuel ladders directly to your roofline.

  • Beetle-kill timber dries rapidly, shedding structural integrity without visible exterior warning.
  • Unmanaged crown spacing allows active canopy fires to jump 40 feet between mature ponderosas.
  • Heavy snow loads snap compromised trunks onto power lines, outbuildings, and access roads.

OPERATIONAL SCOPE

RUGGED CAPABILITY

Specialized rigging systems, technical crane operators, and chemical suppression gear built specifically for steep topography and confined mountain parcels.

HAZARDOUS TREE REMOVAL

Precision crane picks and negative-rigging dismantle rotted or unstable ponderosa pines pinned over rooflines and rocky slopes without terrain destruction.

PINE BEETLE SPRAYING

Spring trunk applications barrier-coat lodgepole and ponderosa stands against Mountain Pine Beetle infestation before pitch tubes and bore dust appear.

EMERALD ASH BORER TREATMENT

Direct trunk micro-injections cycle emamectin benzoate systematically through the vascular cambium layer, delivering two straight years of internal borer defense.

DEFENSIBLE SPACE MITIGATION

Fuel reduction thinning, canopy spacing, and ladder fuel removal executed strictly according to Colorado State Forest Service Zone 1 and Zone 2 wildfire standards.

TREE TRIMMING & PRUNING

Structural crown cleaning, deadwood stripping, and heavy snow weight alleviation performed by climbers adhering to ANSI A300 standards.

STUMP WORK & GRINDING

High-torque track-mounted grinders negotiate granite bedrock and tight access gates, milling root collars down 12 inches beneath existing grade.

No deposit required. On-site assessment by our technical mountain rigging crew.

MOUNTAIN ACCESS TECHNICAL LOG

PRECISION RIGGING

Field visual logs from high-angle canopy cuts, tight-access crane picks, and controlled piece-by-piece lowering above residential structures.

LOCAL PROOF

Two massive dead ponderosas were leaning directly toward our roof over the ridge. The crew arrived at dawn, rigged everything down in sections, and did not touch a single shingle. Cleaned up every branch before leaving.

Steep granite slope behind our house with seven hazard pines that needed mitigation before fire season. They worked methodical and safe all day, chipped everything on site, and left stacked firewood exactly where requested.

Heavy mountain snowfall split a mature blue spruce near our power drop. They responded immediately, secured the line, and safely dismantled the split trunk without damage. Solid crew with serious mountain experience.
