I have some pictures, that I downloaded at work so will have to put them on a thingy to get to this machine, of one of the units after cutting using the purchaser mark, largest stump diameter stays, method. It shows that the larger leave trees are infested with mistletoe.

Unfortunately, that unit also seems to have had a dried up underground stream in it, that came to the surface, and is running down a skid trail. I'll have to try to get the specialists out there. The skid trail was subsoiled, and had slash piled on it..no waterbars because there wasn't a good outlet. The latter happens when we are told to use old skid trails, which weren't located where good drainage occurs.

The good news is, that having a logger up there, the culverts got taken care of and the road was saved. We almost lost it in places but he was going around unplugging the pipes.

That's why we were cutting all the hammer silver fir on Adams, much like that noble of recently, there were more than 12-15 on my strip like that. The mistletoe was just starting, but in ALL of it. Kill it! Bark beetle seems to have made a huge comeback on Hood, mistltoe on Adams. Just an observation from cutting in both areas.
