Any oak on the Fall River lots?

Felled a ton of maple , birch , maple ,big hemlock , lotsa spruce , one really nice beech and some small oak .
There was one oak straight as an arrow for about 40ft about 25" at the butt with hardly any taper that I couldn't cut because it was wrapped with all kinds of ribbon , she sure would have made a nice crash coming down and some nice boards !
I cut a lot in white birch hills today , mainly junk but there was a 90 +/- year old spruce that was about 20" at the butt that had to go .

I cut some really nice oak down along Lock View drive, all about 20-24" and same as yours 25-30 foot clear butts with little taper. Boatbuilders snatched it all up.

We won't be seein' the end of that one, it took a 90 degree turn to the left and chased John clear to the landing.
