With unseasonably warm temps I think I'll clean my chimney.I'm not going on the roof,too much snow!! but It's easy to clean chimney pipe from from inside. With a heavy duty garbage bag chimney brush with long rod and some duct tape...I just take apart everything from the ceiling down and clean that outside.Than I duct tape the bag around the flange at the ceiling, with the brush inside,make a small hole in bottom of bag just for the rod to poke out ..than brush away everything falls into the bag!! Works pretty good without much mess..
 
Cleaned mine yesterday. Good weather for it here in Missouri.
