1-cut out a triangle from a carboard 6in x 6in ,,( 7 or 8 inches will work also )you will have one-90 degree angle and two -45 degree angles when done making it
2-hold the tri-angle cardboard in front of your eye sight (closest to 5 feet from the ground )with the angle cut angled up towards the top of the tree. ( you will looking up the angle side)
3-by looking up the slanted side of the cardboard triangle,take steps backwards until you are looking at the very top of the tree .
4- stick a marker down at your feet for a measurment point and then measure from this point to the tree ..this real close to how tall the tree is..

Or I can just cut down the tree with a chainsaw and measure it with my Spencer tape
