Do you really want to (have to) cut down that tree? In many places
you
won't have any obligation to do anything if it fell because of
natural causes.

If you have to, do yourself a big favor and hire someone to do it.
Felling trees is a dangerous biz by itself that gets much more
dangerous if you have to work standing with unsafe footing in a
stream.

No offense, but you don't seem to have much experience working with
a
chainsaw which adds the third risk factor to the job. Too many,

Uh, he said that the tree was already down, so cutting it down does
not appear to be at issue.
