The uphill bamboo I’m gonna still have to spend like 3 minutes hosing out and prying out of cracks in the stone wall every other day for a while; based on experience with the other part of the wall I’m just putting down a quarter-day now and calling it.

The leaves haven’t fallen yet but half the “post-fall polesawing” was just stuff I couldn’t see clearly but with lower branches gone I got it.

Back down to a less ridiculous length on the polesaw, levering even the light load of the head at such a distance was killing my lower back.
