Daniel Hovarter Tree Service

About Daniel Hovarter Tree Service

By August the ridge along Highway 88 has gone tinder-dry, and every branch resting on a roof looks like a decision waiting to be made. Daniel Hovarter Tree Service spends those weeks up in Amador Pines pruning cedars and ponderosas back from eaves and turnarounds, thinning crowded crowns, and removing the trees that have quietly died standing. Afternoon thunderheads build over the crest and now and then drop a limb across a lane; what follows is chainsaw work, a full chip box, and an open shoulder by evening. There is a real satisfaction in a pruned pine that looks untouched — no stubs, no torn bark, just a tree with more room to breathe. Up here the forest comes right to the porch step, and this is the work that lets the two share an address.
