Tree Feller Jobs?

[Trapper55]

Hi,
Have gotten interested in tree felling by saw. Mostly all done around my ary by equipment. Just wondering if it is still being done with saws anywhere. Any info on this and possible buisnesses in the AB, BC area that there could be possible job opritunities in this type of work would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Given that there is barely a sawmill running in BC right now, I wouldn't expect to find many falling jobs available. You also have to be certified to be a faller in BC now. The course costs about $9000.

Hand falling is done on the Coast and in the steeper areas of the Interior where machines can't operate.
