Biggest butt I’ve seen in a bit. Thick and juicy( it’s an elm, on a river flat so… ) not a removal this year but it’s days are numbered.
16” work binder for scale.
Had great hinge wood. Overestimated the lean, could have gone deeper with the face cuts, as it was I had to pound it over with a couple wedges. Would have been easier if I’d gone deeper
Yeah. We’ve been working in that burn scar for 2 years and will only get out a fraction of the dead timber. I can’t recall how many hundred thousands of acres it was offhand but a LOT. Just looked it up. 221,835. Acres
