never take the top off a hive on a day that you wouldn't want the roof taken off your house

You can have that ladder work. I'll stick to scaffold or inside jobs.

BTW, who's the helper? Don't he get no credit?  :?

I've learned that lots of beekeeps won't do ladder work so I'm glad to take the opportunity.

Later today I'm headed up a near 3 story ladder to try and finish a removal myself ^^

Really nice pics there... queen looks great!

Heights never did bother me so long as I felt like what ever was holding me up was safe. You have to trust your equipment.

I still work in some high places doing construction work. I have always liked being up high and getting the good view. the 80' bee tree was a blast, just did not last long enough, would have been better at 280'.
