Somewhat new to cutting firewood and am in need of suggestions. Ive been cutting some red oak off of 2 trees that went down in a storm about a 1 1/2 yr ago. Ive gotten about a 4-5 cords worth of wood out of the upper 1/3-1/2 of the tree and am getting down to the lower, larger portion. That was the background, here's my problem. The rest of the two trees are lying on a slope of roughly 30° or so and the trunks are about 32" or so across. Both trunks are lying across smaller downed trees. I am cutting with a 20" bar on a Stihl 460 but have a 25" I can swap to. Any advice for the new dude one how to proceed in taking these sisters to my woodshed safely?
