Got the sugi light in the mail. It weighs about the same as a 28" power match bar. This pic has a 28", 36" and 42". The Sugi measurement appears optomistic!

are all the new sugi bars having the solid white insert now ? similar to oregon ? or just the 36 ? i used to have a couple 28 inch ones ,they had smaller oval inserts
 
Slowp, how did the bark get burned on that tree, don't see any sign of fire.

A big fire went through in the early 20th century. That tree was one of the scattered survivors. The top was dead which mad it unsafe to work around, so it had to be felled, and left for wildlife purposes.

There may have been some less intense fires since the big one.

Sounds like a pisser of a day! While on the subject of rain, what do you guys use for rain gear? I pretty much always work through the rain and I keep having the same problems..water proofing and and horrible ventilation. So...what do you PNW guys use?
 
depends on how much rain... if its really dumping I'll grab my trusty carhart rain slicker. if its just damp or drizzling then T-shirt and or hoody, depending on temperature.

I'm hoping someone is going to be extra nice and get me a Filson tin jacket for Yule... I hear they breath pretty damn good and still keep most of the rain off your back.

Also the bonus with the full brim tin hat is it keeps rain from running down your back, and the pinging is kinda cheery...

I get more wet from sweat wearing rain gear ,most of time i just wear a hoodie sweatshirt ,or a carhart coat ,the coats actually take a while to soak through,some guys wear steel pants ,they breath but repel water ,keep a couple sets of dry clothes in the truck helps too
