That looked like a residual tree. Pissin' out sap is fairly common, the real wet ones are the big stovepipes, they can hold a lot of rain water. I helped fall one that taped out at 19 feet dia, when old Ray pulled out a chunk of undercut, he opened a 6 inch hole in the hollow. The crap that poured out of there was like old crankcase oil, followed by clear water. There were bones, bird beaks, rusty sand and fossilized acorns in the trunk.

really enjoyed the video.... when water came gushing out... couldn't help thinking the tree was crying....

how do you get something like that outa the woods? and on another note, for the size of that tree its amazing it was solid almost the whole way through.

Love it! A big redwood and Chalie Daniels. The faller made it look easy.

The big oaks down here collect a lot of water too. It pours out of the cut a bright wine red color I guess because of the tanin.

Wonderful video, the wedge has more wood in it than some of the trees I cut down!

 

[Maldeney]

GRRRRRR!!!!!! That was awesome!

I felt sorry for the first guy driving wedges... He looked like was gonna fall over!! I think I will watch it fall again.... and again.... and again!

 

[forestryworks]

i wonder why he chose the conventional face over the humboldt?

 

[056kid]

Wedging an 8 footer, not fun

SILogger, I noticed you asked what kind of air filter he's running on his saw. It's a Max-Flow just the cover is black.

8ft'r

Hey guys. I'm Nate. I filmed and put together this video. It was in the summer of '08 near McKinleyville, CA. We didn't use a Humboldt because the logging road was not too far off so we wanted to keep it in tight. Oh, and it was for sure a shallow stovepipe! It was solid to 60-70ft though. Thanks for all the comments hope you liked it. Of course I will be adding logging videos on YouTube periodically. Thanks!
