Were you able to get u'r saws up there, or do you run company magnesium? I was getting very jealous of u'r adventure, but then I remembered you'll prolly marry and divorce three Eskimo women during the summer, and that'll take the fun out of almost any situation

 

[TheJollyLogger]

No, running his saws. Stuck with a 201, but I gotta tell ya that 562 xp is a screamer

 

[TheJollyLogger]

Not that there are very many trees here in town that couldn't be handled with a ms170

 

[HuskStihl]

Tramp is lookin for ya

 

[TheJollyLogger]

Oh, great! I didn't come this far not to see him.

 

[TheJollyLogger]

And yes, Jon, I spent the afternoon weeding my girlfriend's garden. The place needs a lot of work.

 

[TheJollyLogger]

And they prefer Inuit

 

[treeslayer2003]

And they prefer Inuit

[TheJollyLogger]

Well, I did need a place to stay...

 

[HuskStihl]

And yes, Jon, I spent the afternoon weeding my girlfriend's garden. The place needs a lot of work.

That's a clever linguistical euphemism!

 

[TheJollyLogger]

Ha ha. No, literally, I weeded and tolled all afternoon

 

[OlympicYJ]

Oh the reply I'd love to say to that haha. Yeah the timber isn't that big up by Fairbanks. Living in Fairbanks isn't all that fun but get out of town and it's not bad. There is a sawmill somewhere around Fairbanks and they do do some logging. Mostly goes for timbers and low grade stuff otherwise the rest comes from the states and prob some from SE. As a forester friend who leased a couple townships for high grade birch said. Alaska is where old logging equipment goes to die, especially interior. The few log trucks I saw runin around Fairbanks were definitely older.

The big trees are in the Southeast, where one year, the sun came out one day. I was told this by two pale Thorne Bay residents who were down here for school.
