Bucked, split, and hauled wood from wheel barrow to van from 9 to 3. I may need a Gatorade. There is so much rounds left I think I may have gone too far. Will probably take a month to haul it all out lol. I think it's time to recruit my wife and kids.
Oh yeah, scrounging with a cold felt much better than sitting in the house all day. If you don't see me for a while, tell the cops my wife did it. She's pissed I went scrounging instead of seeing a doctor

Chris, being in the bucket all day in a cold wind must be tough.
One of my friends does most of the bucket work for the local Town (works for the Town).
Thankfully, he topped a large branch near the power lines in my back lot last year, made it much easier for me to take the rest of the leg down. Will take the rest of that tree down this year, the bottom is all rotted (a Silver Maple). luckily, most of the rest of it is leaning away from the power lines. Just a small leg on the opposite side I will have to tie and pull the opposite way. I'm hoping the upper portion will be good for firewood.

Yup, I've seen my Dad do the same.

A few times as shipped, worked as expected, then washed them, they shrunk perfect to fit. Since colder weather ended though, back to similar construction warm weather home depot specials, still have half a pack of those.
Did another half cord with the Fiskars this afternoon.
Why does AS force photos to layout lengthwise for the last few weeks?
I'm getting vertigo!
Yes the last 6 rounds on the bottom were pretty bad (almost all of the trees in this lot are past prime) Solid most of the way down the tree though.
I split that crap away from the solid part and leave it in the woods.
I've been a bit slack lately , too much snow in the woods and the tractor was buried , since today turned out to be a fair weather day I went to check up on the tractor , when I got there the 4+ foot of snow had shrunk down to about 3' so I decided to make a run for it LOL
I was just just gonna take a drive up the road with the van but since I had the tractor I figured I'd go for a few leaners if I could see some and get to them .
Found a few maples along this tree line .
This one looked good from the road but when I got close up I decided to pass on it , been there too long
I did manage to drag out a few tops today
It did make for a small load with the Zogger wood and the sun came out so it was a real nice afternoon out there
I checked but no PI or ticks to be seen

Here's a quick video of the logging winch hauling a maple to me in the snow at idle , sure was better than dragging out rounds in the 3+ feet of snow .
Yes! The dancan van is back in action!!!I've been a bit slack lately , too much snow in the woods and the tractor was buried , since today turned out to be a fair weather day I went to check up on the tractor , when I got there the 4+ foot of snow had shrunk down to about 3' so I decided to make a run for it LOL

I sure hope we start to loose some snow soon because I can only travel the plowed section
Snow shoes would have been helpful , it sucks to break the crust and sink to you waist .
