A friend of mine is helping out, I am not a logger by trade, I do respect the people that are because it is a lot of work, but it is enjoyable work so it is not all that bad, It is still pays to have your own equipment if you have the land, Some of the equipment may not be pretty but it gets the job done.

Yes the wood is going for Pulp and Firewood, Last year I did not take any pulp or firewood out, Had to get in and out since the weather never stayed that cold and the skidder was making a mess. Taking the Pulp and firewood out makes for such a nicer finshed job.

How old was your Rottie when you lost her?

Some of my hard maple sold for veneer, I don't have pic's of it, I can try to snap some before it is hauled off, I was surprised because The first few Maples had a pretty dark heart ( Still sold for High Quality ) But then there were a few that came down that were nice and white the whole way.
 
nice job

For someone who doesn't do this for a living,you ,or whoever felled and bucked the wood did a real nice job.I notice on some of the bigger hardwood logs you "plunge cut" the center out.Nice close limbing.Sweet skidder.:msp_thumbup:
 
I had a guy helping me, He is a pro logger, I took his advice on stuff and listen to what he had to say if he made any suggestions. I do like having equipment and if I see a good deal I take advantage of it, I tend to go over board at times.
