Assuming I'm looking at the right thing, I'd say that's pine, not
Cupressus. Unless it's something like Pinus montezuma, which I seriously
doubt, I wouldn't break my heart over a slash and burn operation - not if
you're going to lose an all-important view like that one. The only thing
I
would say is that if this property is very new to you, make sure you're
not
obliterating an important shelter belt. If that's what those trees *are*
there for, then taking a few feet off the top and leaving the bulk to
shelter you might well be your answer. Only you and time can tell. ;-)
