- Description
- This project requires climbing designated trees and picking cones with ripe seeds from those trees in compliance with the terms, specifications, and provisions incorporated herein.� For specifically designated western larch, in addition to climbing trees, some of these trees may require topping at six (6) inches or smaller and collecting the cones from the cut tree tops on the ground.� The Contractor shall furnish all labor, equipment, supervision, transportation, operating supplies and incidentals to do the job. Seed orchard trees range in height from 15 feet to 50 feet.� Some may only require a step ladder to pick and other will require climbing and picking.� Extension ladders may also be effective.� The use of a man lift may be the most effective way to collect Wester Larch Seed Orchard trees.� Western Larch orchard trees are too small to be climbed and many are too tall for a ladder.
