Some good advice will come from a seasoned tree climber, especially a arborist. Talk to them, have them show you some climbing knots and how to safely get up, down, and arround. Learning this trade dosen't happen overnight. I've been doing this for about 3 year on my own, but I've been involved in the industry my entire life. I would help my dad set up and clean up jobs every day. Hell, my dad ws surprised that I took it to another level were I was climping palm trees that were 90 feet and swong in the wind like wet noodle. Your either going to like it or get scared out of your wits. There is really no middle gound in this industry.
