We skidded 19 more lake logs aka “dead heads” out of the lake. My neighbor texted that he realized later that he broke a front axle skidding with the wheeler.

Some of them.

Processing for firewood? Seems like a hassle when surrounded by standing timber? What's the scoop on pursuing this wood? Fill us in.

Removing from the lake for safety purposes. I do use some of these logs for firewood though, they actually dry pretty quickly once split.

I wish we had snow. As we live in 60th parallel North, there's very limited amount of daylight this time of the year. Snow would help a little bit, especially when driving.
Of course, snow here in the southern part of the country does not stay white for a long time rather than becoming gross grey-brown stuff.

I tore a cvc boot on my Polaris. The axle is connected to the front differential like a socket wrench handle and socket. Give it a hard jerk and it pops out.

That's a great stack. How many cord in that?

@al-k That a full 10 from a load this spring to the house. I have another 6 or so still that is not cut up yet. I go through almost 10/yr...

looking at a few things to try and bring that down a bit. 10/yr is wearing on me![/QUOTE]

Wow. I burn 2 a year and that is all I can manage outside of a job, wife, kids. Last season I cut 4 so I could be a year ahead split by hand, thought my wife was gonna divorce me. She won’t be complaining when it gets cold.
