Hi I’m Charlie. And recently I discovered I was at risk of developing BBS, or Bucket Baby Syndrome. A common affliction among aerial workers, Bucket Baby Syndrome is generally caused by excessive use of hydraulic and other mechanized means to perform work aloft.
Symptoms of BBS include weakened grip strength, poor balance for limb walking, a soft, protruding growth around the midsection, and feelings of lethargy when looking at a tree that would have to be climbed.
I recognized the early warning signs this week when about eight trees proved to be inaccessible to Edwards Family Tree’s bucket trucks. So I talked to my Self, and he prescribed that dusty climbing harness in the toolbox and some anti- wussitis cream.

Once I was 70 feet up in that 1st Cottonwood, all symptoms of Bucket Baby Syndrome were gone! Talk to your self today, and see if climbing is right for you! If not, call us!
