A pick-up and lay-down pipe handling system and method providing a telescopingly extendable crane boom which transports tubulars and pipes both linearly and vertically. The crane boom is preferably pivotally moveable with respect to its base and the crane may be able to rotate with a 360 degree range of rotational movement with respect to the base. The crane boom employs a cable or plurality of cables that run between at least two winches at the base of the crane boom. The cables are run through two pulleys or carriages attached to a hollowed out half pipe section into which the tubulars or pipes are placed. The winches are then activated to move the hollowed out half pipe both vertically and linearly to the desired position.
