Wind blown pine tree branches wreak havoc on halyard lines and antennas.
Untangling them is a frustrating task that more often than not requires the branches to be cut.

IF you can get a chain saw blade on handles over the offending branches with a drone, air cannon, telescoping fiberglass mast, bow & arrow, etc. you can cut the branch off from the ground.

A Christmas tree with tinsel is to a ham’s pine tree after a windstorm. 

Pro Tip: always lead the halyard lines way way from tree branches when securing them so they are free and clear of branches.
