I'd call my friend Lonnie. He was a "cutter". Logger. It was pure poetry to watch him fall 5 firs for me a few years back. Trees that big need somebody with that kind of skill. It's an art form to look at the tree, and just know where it's mass lies, and just where and how to cut so it falls exactly where needed.

So, if you know anybody still in the timber industry...he or she may know a good cutter.

That's assuming there is space for the tree to fall in one piece. If not, an arborist...somebody who climbs the tree and whittles it down from the top. That'll really cost ya, tho.
