The Tree Climber's Companion - 3rd Edition by Jeff Jepson The newly revised and expanded third Edition of The Tree Climber's Companion is here and now available with significant updates and additions. The 3rd Edition retains the exact dimensions as the previous publication (121.6 cm x 8.5"), but this Edition has grown to 192 pages (up from 104) to accommodate fresh content and expanded sections. New additions include three entirely new chapters: "The Well Prepared Climber," "Descending the Tree," and "Working in the Tree." The section on "Entering the Tree" has been thoroughly expanded, covering moving and stationary rope systems and climbing with spikes. The publishers significantly expanded the "Knots for Climbing and Rigging" section. This Edition includes checklists, sidebars, updated terminology, a glossary, and end notes. Plus, you'll find helpful tips in the "Random Advice for the Climbing Life" section, along with many new illustrations to enhance your learning experience. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a novice climber, this comprehensive guide is invaluable for anyone working in the tree care industry.
