A friend from another forum who has been logging his whole working life and has a tree co let me come drop some real trees in a real forest which was a treat for me.

Madrona removal with an added doug- fir reduction. Homeowner cleanup.

More alder removals and some canopy raising of doug- firs tomorrow.

First pic at about 50-60'.

Respect for madrone trees

 

[flushcut]

Never had the pleasure.

Solo take down?

Homeowner with the Kubota FTW

 

[Burnham]

I think that given a choice I'd save the madrone and remove the DF.

Rather than double whip tackle. The homeowner unhooked some pieces.

He had a homemade choker for the kubota and unseen 'gator' utility vehicle.


I helped him choker some big pieces, some roped, some free dropped, onto his machines which he drug to the back 40 (5 acre parcel maybe)
His son showed up this morning and they got all the wood out, and basically all the brush.

A good cold, barely snowing day for some spurless, slimy canopy raise training action, with a few zipped pieces over some landscape electrical wires, some free dropped, some snap cut and throw. My employee/ .

It's been ages since I did a job where the custy unhooked the pieces. The job in mind, he also ran the ropes very well. Some peeps got it and some don't.

We’re going to need a bigger bar. Just a prune, but what a monster. 15’ 8” CBH.

 

[FJR]

That is a monster!

I land pieces from the tree well, generally. The one difficult landing had a tagline on it to pull with a machine to where he could choker it and drag it off. He's retired from 42 years as a forklift operator, volunteer firefighter, got tractor operator.

4000# spruce top to start the day

That one chunk of wood's a keeper Andrey. Not sure exactly what I'd do with it, but it has an interesting shape.

 

[SeanKroll]

Training... read the stump.

Dude, who measures circumference... it's diameter. 🙂. What's the deal with the meth house in the background? Just funning you of course.

It’s called simple math. And that is a defunct chicken coop being tore down in spring. But I am sure the owner will be willing to rent it out to you. Lol

 

[Burnham]

It's called simple math by tree cutters who are too simple to own a proper D tape.

Nice day for it on Tuesday. Now it is snowing.

 

[lxskllr]

I wouldn't mind that perch in the snow. Looks like heaven.

It is pretty nice. About 2 or 3 km from my place.

I had done 5 trees, someone asked about the view. I hadn’t even looked. So I took my mobile up for the last two trees.
