What We Offer

Thin Air Tree Service is Cody's locally owned tree care company — serving residential and commercial properties throughout Park County. We know the trees here: the cottonwoods along the Shoshone, the aging elms in established neighborhoods, the pines and firs on properties pushing up toward the foothills. And we know the conditions that stress them — late spring snowloads, summer drought, high winds off the Absarokas, and the wildfire risk that comes with living at the edge of some of Wyoming's most beautiful terrain.

Whether you need a hazardous tree removed before winter, defensible space cleared around your home, or routine pruning to keep your property safe and looking its best, Thin Air brings the right equipment and local expertise to every job in Cody.
