Unwanted Riff Raff.
I thought it looked like what you had applied real good. Probably even better than what I ended up with. A weekend ago I just decided to go crazy and start falling dead ones, rather than mark them for later cutting. I might do that this week again, have a good sized ash for sure to take down. Want to get all the ash out before the rest of the leaves drop. The mulberry I will just cut down either way, if I need more wood. What I have taken down and skidded seems to be holding up real good for now, until I get my bucking saws fixed. No bug issues yet, that i've seen. But i'm going to be running out of room for new skidded trees shortly if I don't get the stuff bucked up.
Once the beans are off the field, I'll most likely have a couple weekends of drop and drag, and then a whole bunch of bucking and splitting. I really don't have a good trail to get anything bigger than the pickup in the woods while the crops are still in the fields, so till then I'll be cutting up down stuff. The beans are starting to turn here though, so it won't be too terribly long before they're ready.
