Subalpine fir...Soft wood with a great amount of taper and thousands of limbs from the ground up. Not worth a Pi$$!
When a mill is cutting this wood almost as bad as going P ### on an camp fire.

Ummm, do you really need an answer?
Mister 2K,
If I fix up my 460 will you let me come to Stihl camp next summer?

slowp, it might just be the pictures....but those trees don't look very big... what is the average size? around here we wouldn't even cut trees that small.

I have a lot of respect for you guys in the logging world, I'm sure I couldn't hack it. Thanks for the pictures and "keeping it real" for us wanna be fellers.
Rep headed your way,
"Ditto" Thanks for letting us live vicariously through you guys who do it for real. My respect to you and everyone in your profession.
14" and that's what the mill wants ? Wow.
Thanks for the answers, Slowp.
pgg, I love the way you talk. Is that English ???
I have a hard time directing the fall of small trees myself. Just about the time the back cut is deep enough to pause and insert a wedge, the tree decides to lean back and pinch the bar.
I always enjoy your posts & pics of the real deal.
Put in the backcut first.
