Colorado Tree Removal, Fire Mitigation & Land Management
At Outlaw Forestry, we help Colorado landowners protect and enhance their properties for the next generation. Led by licensed arborist Bryce Gidney, our team provides specialized tree removal, expert wildfire mitigation, and strategic land management tailored to high-value mountain and rural landscapes.
Based in Eagle County, Colorado, we partner with private landowners, ranches, HOAs, and builders to make properties safer, more resilient, and recreation-ready. From hazard tree felling and defensible space creation to trail development and habitat enhancement, our work combines technical expertise with deep respect for the land — and the legacy it represents.
We help Colorado landowners protect, improve, and prepare their properties for generations to come. Our work is rooted in certified arborist expertise, advanced forestry equipment, and a deep respect for the land. From hazard tree removal to wildfire defense and long-term land management, every service is tailored to your property’s unique terrain, use, and legacy goals.
OUR SERVICES
We provide professional felling and removal of large and hazardous trees for ranches, estates, and development sites. From crane-assisted removals to clearing access corridors, our certified arborist team and specialized equipment handle the work safely, efficiently, and with care for the surrounding land.
We design and implement wildfire defense strategies — including defensible space creation, selective thinning, and low-impact mulching — to protect homes, lodges, and ranch properties. Our goal is long-term safety and resilience, not just code compliance.
From ranch restoration to recreational access, we help landowners care for their property with integrity and intention. Services include trail system planning, utility corridor clearing, hunting access consulting, and wildlife habitat enhancement — all designed to create lasting value for generations.
Outlaw Forestry was founded by licensed arborist Bryce Gidney to bring high-level forestry services to Colorado’s most demanding properties. We focus on safe tree removal, wildfire defense, and long-term land management. Our work is quiet, efficient, and built for landowners who expect things done right the first time.
Built on Stewardship. Grounded in Trust.
CLIENT PERSPECTIVES
Private Ranch Owner – Eagle County
“We’ve worked with several land consultants over the years, but none with the level of care and foresight Bryce brings. He approached our wildfire mitigation plan not as a one-time project, but as a long-term relationship with the land. He saw details we never would have caught, and implemented a plan that feels both thorough and respectful of the property. We now feel far more confident heading into fire season.”
“Bryce doesn’t just understand land — he understands people who care deeply about it. From wildlife corridors to game management and blind placement, he created systems that serve our family now and will teach the next generation how to care for it well. The added support in setting up our on-site processing and mentoring our children in ethical hunting practices was above and beyond.”
Estate Manager – Colorado Mountain Property
“We brought in Bryce for what we thought would be selective thinning, and ended up restructuring our entire seasonal land strategy. His approach to forest health and habitat design was practical, thoughtful, and aligned with our values. He’s now a trusted advisor we call on before any major decision involving our projects.”
