Freaking monster of a tree :rockhard:

That's next level

Good stuff! How are they gonna get the logs out.

Fine thread, fo sho. The residual small trees, will they survive the logging and so what you are doing, it is a thinning rather than a clearcut?

:popcorn:

Perfect framing on that shot. It must take a while just to cut the springboard holes. I see one of em is fairly close to under the hinge but I guess not too close. Still curious how well redwood hinges! Wicked limb fall indeed on Matts tree, wow!

Gerr, would you use gunning sticks on a monster like that? I would guess so if you are aiming a 250' tree into a 10' wide slot. Did it have just back lean, or side lean too. I'm guessing only back lean. Re side lean, does redwood hinge well, like as good as D fir for example?

"One blade wide" aint very wide imo for a tree that size!

Gerry, with a tree of that size on ground that steep, I'm wondering what you did with your saw when that monster started to go. It looks like leaping for your life would be challenge enough without trying to also protect your saw.

Here’s the pic that came to mind. Lordy it’s been too long since I perused FGTW; Gerry and co. knocked down monsters, smh!

You can post vids here but I'm not the expert re how to

The second pic reminds me of Jerry's pic in FGTW of that humongous redwood felled uphill and rammed tight against it's stump.
