lol been in tree trimming most my life. Never used any of this stuff. tho I trim them out of power lines. Only time were really dropping tress is if were clearing a rite of way.
In controlled burns, the under growth is burnt off to aid growth of the timber. As long as their is still green at the top of of the timber, it's still alive. These monsters had to have green at the tops of them. If this is old growth thinning, leaving younger trees to mature, that's cool. It's how logging should be done. But to suggest this tree was cut down because it was dead due to a forest fire is asinine. If anything, it's allowing ground erosion in a burn scar.
Couldn't tell what species it was, but the bark was relatively thin. It may well have been killed in the fire. Plus, on public land (which this probably was), foresters mark trees for salvage based on a rubric that predicts what level of damage is likely o result in a dead trees within the first few years after the fire, so as not to leave "too many" snags on the site. They also mark enough volume so that he sale will attract a buyer. Old Douglas-fir and Ponderosa pine (at least 100 years old) tend to have thick bark, allowing many of them to survive a fire. It gets thicker over the years, and can be 6 in. thick in 200-400 year old trees, insulating the live inner bark and sapwood. Those trees only are killed if younger trees nearby let the fire get into the canopy, or if there is very thick duff that "cooks" the root crown after smoldering for a long time.
Ok so if you look at it youd see that it got burnt by a fire so get bent and delete your comment theyre just salvaging and putting it to better use than it becoming a roadblock
Nice shot.
I live in sonoma county and know all the fires first hand. thanks for the help!
hi, is this is a job ? can u help whit info please
meck and his ole lady. Accurate and safe cutters. Keep laying em down.
Team work 200 percent. Looks like the sawyer cut through the left hinge. Maybe to draw the fall to the right a little?
Childhood memories. My dad did this for about 30 years. I was always fascinated watching it
Great teamwork
Nice work 👊😎
Thats a big boy there...ive never cut s tree that tall...how many can you guys fall in a day?
Wow - ya couldn't ask for a easier place to cut timber. Flat ground, no brush, no limbs - those cutters are lucky👍👍👍🪓🪓🪓🍺🍺🍺
Yeah it was flat and the understory burned off.
does this forest fire wood get sent to the mills still?
Indeed it does just gotta shave off the burnt bark and it's mill able
Wish they left it. Rots easily
Nice shot
I'd be done for the day after that. LOL 😎👍🏻
Biggest white pine I've ever cut had 2550ft plus a couple tons of pulp those look really big I only run 18in bar what do u normally use?
What's your preferred saw and bar length mate?
My kind of saw. 395xp is a beast.

Cool, utility work is awful and I’m sorry you have to deal with it.
Anyone hiring out there I'm 46yrs old logged conventionally here in Maine since high-school ready for a change
how much would a mill pay for a tree like this
$$$$$
Bang
Respekt!
FERN GULLY 😂😂😂😢
il problema non è il taglio ma la piantumazione
WHERES REGINA..... LOL ROFL
You guys are good with his big ass
Can't fell a big boy tree without a jack my dude?
Ha😂
jack is just a bigger wedge. How many wedges you want to chase around that back cut?
What sort of an insult is that supposed to be 😅
Why
Go away
so you can wipe your butt
I like how she jacks that tree off.........the stump.
Not much fiber left on that one good job
ITS A ONE MAN JOB
