Ghost gums and some Eucalyptus are first cousins? They did belong to the same family until the early 90's where someone changed the family name for the Ghost gums..

Thanks for the clarification.

That chunk of wood probably weighs more than you do.   That is impressive work standing up there with a set of tree gaffs on.

Is that a ring or a carabiner on the redirect sling. Looks pretty slick.

That poplar sure looked nice and straight.   Could be some good lumber in it.
