Looking for work in the woods. Experience running and maintaining chainsaws, and cable skidder experience. Have my own chainsaws (husqvarna XP models) and my own chaps, boots, helmet (PPE). Also have some timber cruising/forestry experience, and some time as a groundie for a tree service. I have a reliable vehicle, valid drivers license, and have no issue passing a background\drug test.
Prefer the NEK area of Vermont, but could possibly relocate for the right full time position.
