Forestry England completed an unusual felling operation involving a specialist helicopter team to fell trees at Whinlatter Forest in Cumbria which were affected by the tree disease P. ramorum – sometimes known as larch disease.
The two-day operation involved an 18-strong Forestry England team and a contract harvesting team working alongside Swiss and Scottish operators, brought in for their expertise in helicopter logging – a forestry technique common in Switzerland but used only once before by the same team in the UK. 150 diseased larch trees around Whinlatter Forest’s high-wires course needed were lifted vertically to avoid damaging the play equipment and climbing infrastructure.
The felling operation involved several steps and careful coordination between ground and climbing teams, and the helicopter pilot.
