14" -16" average is considered good wood in (red or black) spruce here in the northeast. (balsam) fir usually doenst get tha big. but they both go for studwood down to 4" top.
(eastern)white pine is more for trim wood and paneling. they like those down to 8" top. but thats not where the money is. 12" top end diameter and better is much better money.
(eastern) hemlock is hardly worth cutting but they cut it out so the pine will grow in its place. the logs arent worth much money, and the butts tend to have ring shake. (seperation of one growth ring from the next) its good hard wood but tapers like a traffic cone and limby as all get out. mills buy it down to 8 or 9 inches.
im speaking of sawmills. pulp mills buy wood down to 3 inches but you can send it smaller if its mixed in. (dont purposefully cut that stuff, but if it jumps into the pile it goes on the truck!)

Here's the rigging crew setup.
The jug has water in it, for drinking.
They just move the saw on down, or up, whichever way they are working.

I don't know anything about the rigging crew but what exactly do they use the saw fir?
