With all the trees in my back yard, all are clustered so close together. I posted a pic of a locust that I felled and it landed on a Cherry tree. Most of the time I fell a tree and it falls. This time and the last time, I had bad luck.

Any ideas on how to get this Cherry on the ground? it is almost vertical. and I have no way to get a truck in there. Check out this photo.

If you can email it to a desktop or laptop, etc., you can work with the image, and get the correct extension. Worst case, view it on a PC and use the clip tool or print screen to copy and paste it into "paint" or similar program. Then you can save the image as an accepted type.
 
Going by your description it sounds like a dangerous perdicament.!!!
 
If you feel safe enough and are confident with your felling skills, fell another tree into the hanger I have had moderate success with this, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't, but be careful when trying to do this it's risky, have a good escape route planned and be 150% your not putting yourself into harms way
 
I've gotten myself into a 3 tree mess like this before. The first tree hung up and I thought i could drop another and bring the whole mess down. My felling skills are less than superb and my aim was a little off leaving me with 2 fully cut trees hung up in a live one. I tossed some ropes over and hooked some tow straps to the winch cable on my ATV. Between the winch and ATV pulling I was able to roll the whole mess onto the ground.

not a bad idea. I've used a time or two also dangerous tho
 
Best to use a come along and some chain and drag it out with that still dangerous but effective

You got a come-along and someplace to anchor it? That'd be the easiest/safest way
 
Not to sound repetitive but like the other guys said a come a long and LOTS of chain to get out of the way
 
Glad to see I'm not alone with this problem by the way it sounds! I'm with the come-along and chain crowd. I have had to do this more times than I care to admit.
