Climber Levi Craze sawed limb after limb off a 115-foot cottonwood tree in Uptown Port Townsend. A Darrell Emel’s Tree Service crew spent two full days with a crane and a large wood chipper on the site behind Cathy Traut-Hessom’s Clay Street home. She was apologetic about having the tree cut, but wanted to remove it before a winter storm blew it down onto nearby homes and cars. (Diane Urbani de la Paz/for Peninsula Daily News)
