What do Crest trees need?
Mountain communities, Julian, Alpine, Ramona, Pine Valley, Campo, carry heavy pine beetle damage. Dead and dying pines are a fire hazard and often a Cal Fire removal priority. Access can be tight and seasonal, and large-diameter removal usually needs a crane or heavy rigging. We plan mountain work around dry-season access and coordinate with fire-hardening deadlines.
