What a beautiful day to be pruning this Siberian Elm. Don’t forget your elms need to be pruned by the end of March. After that you’ll need to wait until October.

And they’re down. Just a bit of clean up left.

Mid afternoon update

Big winds this weekend broke this tree. Timberline to the rescue

Work that keeps me outside. Places that remind me why I chose it.

Back at it after last week’s deep freeze ❄️💪 Giving this elm some much‑needed attention and getting your trees ready for the season. 🌳🇨🇦

“As far back as I can remember… I always wanted to be a gangster.” Turns out I just wanted to drop massive cottonwoods instead. #TreeDrop #Cottonwood #ArboristLife #Timber #SlowMo TreeRemoval HeavyWood CertifiedArborist WorkSatisfying TimberlineArborists

Cottonwood down. People see a clean yard. We see years of growth, tons of weight, inches of precision, and zero room for error. Big trees done safely.

Taking down giants from the top! Nothing beats that bird’s-eye view while rigging and dropping. Safety first, adventure always. Who’s up for some tree-climbing action? #ArboristAdventures #TreeWork #HighUp #NatureNinja #OutdoorLife

First elm prune of the season. Crown raise over the driveway, deadwood and clearance for the spruce behind it

When we inspect trees, we often find hidden threats that most homeowners don’t notice—like the webbing in this photo. These nests are a sign of insect activity that can weaken a tree’s health over time. At Timberline Arborists, we don’t just prune and remove—we protect. Our plant health care services target problems like this before they cause serious damage, ensuring your trees stay strong and beautiful year after year. Your trees are an investment. Let’s keep them healthy.

Aphids: the cows 🐄 Ants: the ranchers 🐜 Your tree: the pasture 🌳 Ants ‘farm’ aphids for the sweet honeydew they produce, and in return, they protect them from predators. The more ants you see, the bigger your aphid problem. 👀 Spot this duo on your trees? Snap a pic and send it to us — we’ll let you know if it’s time to shut down the operation.

This tree is 60 feet tall. My office today? The top. 🌲🪓 One wrong move and it’s a long way down. Would you do this for a living?
