Weekend wood cutting

[alderman]

The state opened up some wood cutting areas with easy access. 2 cords of wood for $10. Cut this wood 6 miles from the front door.

Ran the 577 this weekend and she performed well. Not a blip. Not bad for $155 e-bay purchase.

I think I got my $10 worth

A sample of what they leave behind. Alder, Fir, and Hemlock

Finally got a chance to try out the new trailer after years of crawling into the canopy.

Made for a pretty good weekend, and the weather was great.

I would love a trailer like that! Been thinking of modifying the old two place snowmobile trailer with sides similar to yours. Good score! (On the saw and the wood!)

NIce pile of easy wood, always nice when you can drive into the wood.

Too warm here as well, I just looked at the wood and started sweating, went through lots of ice cubes today.

Good deal. I made wood all weekend also, feels good. Nice access, that's key.

Agree on the warm bit. I went out to bust up some big sugar maple rounds with wedges and the Monster Maul at about 2 pm yesterday, about 20 min. of that was enough, I had worked up a good sweat.

Nice score and thanks for the pictures. I have an itch to go out and find some more firewood, however I am completely out of room to store it. I guess for now I will just have to live vicariously through the pic's you guys post.

Good Score

Took my saws tractor, trailer, and splitter next door to BILs Sunday. There were 6-7 trees knocked down 2 years ago during windstorm. All were off the ground and piled up like jenga blocks. My BIL wouldn't touch them. I showed him how to cut springs safely and we cut, bucked, and split all in about 5 hours yesterday. Split his small for fireplace. Took mine as rounds for OWB. Had lunch off the grill. We both ended up with a cord of mixed maple and Oak, all RTB and close to home. Was about 70*F, low humidity. Great day and enough wood to carry me through Dec 1st or so.
