My Mountain is Falling Apart!

- One of the roads on my forest land washed out last winter. I do some investigating upstream to see what happened to cause a bunch of sediment to come down the stream. After I find out what happened, I take a little walk through my forest land. Adjust my Trail camera and show some elk videos. Before I am able to do any logging or cut any firewood on the other side of the property, I will have to fix this road situation.

lol. “I would never do that. And if I did, I would not show it on TH-cam.“ I like this guy.
Agreed, don't say a word when you're reshaping the landscape on your private property. Just do what you know is the right thing and move on to the next project.
Spot on friend!
“What? Oh yeah, a big storm blew through and did that.”
Whenever I have a few drinks I’ll watch these videos and they are extra hilarious. 🤣
Love your monotone dry wit humor, makes me love these videos. Plus I am jealous of all that property!!
My son and I went on a 5 mile hike yesterday and didn't see another soul. We wondered why?! All reviews said the trail was well maintained. They lied. The lie should have been obvious to us near the start when the bridges were washed out and the forest service had just chipped out steps on some old peeled logs, some of which were highly unstable. The path looked clear tho so we continued. After the first mile being clear we were lulled into a false sense of security. As we got further along the trail it gradually receeded into dense new big leaf maple scrub, interlaced with every species of blackberry bramble. We took the time to break and bend the worste of the stickers off the trail, which soon could only be found by feel. Being of the rugged sort we bushwacked our way for about an hour when it finally connected in with the part they had cleared by coming in from the other end. The only part reviewed and used by horses, who knew?! We were rewarded in the end tho by seeing and hearing many birds, most especially an owl on our way back, and two herds of elk. Part of the hike was through a burn that happened some years ago and the fireweed and wild hollyhock were in bloom filling the air with their delightful perfume. I almost forgot to mention, but your fast descent into the creek reminded me, that my son nearly took a header off the trail because a gopher hole undercut the embankment. He caught himself just in time, the drop off was about 200 feet through the brush. He also got visited by a bald headed hornet up his shorts, which resulted in a remarkable howling dance, which I did not record. Instead I got out my tube of trusty Afterbite, and doctored it for him. All in all it was a beautiful day.
the first step in repairing erosion is to not tell anyone there is erosion to repair. then nobody will come looking for it.
Your splash is worth a like.
Time to Gold pan on the newly eroded sections, might be a lot of gold in them hills
Fluvial geomorphology is the study of erosion by water. It includes stream process, coastal erosion and mass wasting (landslides).
Lovely scenery at least
Well done sir. A walk in the woods is always good.
I reached a fork in my viewing road: like or not like? Well, I followed Yogi's advice. Hope that helps.
We had the regular flowing side of our creek dam up with debris this winter. Went I went on a walk this spring found out it bypassed on the other side of the fork, but not before eroding and causing a landslide of a good 100ft long, 50+ft high part of the ravine on the other side of the creek. Not sure what I should do, can do, or how I would do it at this point.
Keep waiting for you to do a Les Stroud, "always gotta come back for the camera".
Sometimes it's nice to just take a hike. The work will still be there when you get back.
Nice walk Mike, didn't need to see anything exciting, just trees and huge ferns.
Didn’t hear anything about pruned feet on your walk so apparently those nice Sox’s did their job! 😁👍🏼👍🏼
Check for gold. Fingers crossed!
Eventually all things merge into one, and a river runs through it.
👍 MacLean
Look at the size of the tree stump to the right at the 5:52 mark. It looks like is was cut down by the flatness of the top.
Thanks for listing your trail camera.
Can you give us a link to the hard hat you prefer?👍🇺🇸
Thank Dog for those wool socks 😅
Hey Boo Boo! Smarter than the average Bear! 🐻
You’re living the dream … thanks for sharing your insights!
Looks like good elk hunting territory
he said there was a big elk trail, so you know there are big elk. not so sure about little elk.
You don’t fork around when you take a hike up the creek without a paddle… well done.
Thanks for listing your trail camera👍🇺🇸
Thanks for the good views and humor.
A long walk. Made a lot longer you need to teach those cameras to keep up. 😅
"This area looks like it's more recently washed out."
That area looks like where they filmed Predator!
RUN!
SAAAAAVE yourself!
Get to da choppa!!
Looks like the logs could have caused a nasty ice dam in the winter. When it began to thaw the banks couldn't hold it, so it blew out. Here's a quote for you, "When your backs against the wall, don't turn around and run!" 😊
I doubt it ever freezes hard enough in California coastlands.
@@PaulHodgson-gm6lg You'd be incorrect, sir.
And in the Oregon Coast Range, (where Wilson's land is) it absolutely freezes hard enough to cause extensive ice damage to the trees every winter; just inquire of any of the small woodlands' landowners filing claims every spring.
@@lpeterman not for long, what's the elevation on his coast property?
@@PaulHodgson-gm6lg I know not -
never been there; however, the ice-storm damage is well documented throughout the Coast Range every winter.
(I'm a former Chapter President for one of the Oregon Small Woodlands counties, and I assure you it is a topic of lament every spring.)
Ice dams are what first came to my mind due to the large logs in the creek. The thought also occurred that since we are prone to multiple instances of atmopheric rivers in our Fall and Winter months, which bring high winds as well as gully washing rains, and deep snowfall, followed by warm spells, which cause supersaturation. We are at higher risk of these types of events on steep inclines. Those of us who live with these conditions do not build our homes near idealic looking summer streams or deeply slanted hillsides with lovely canyon views. Not unless of course we want them turned into houseboats. 😊
I like this guy
Beautiful Forest. Great Video. Learn alot from your Videos.
Love your videos.
You seem to make anything interesting.
I am always staggered by the amount of extra physical and mental and computer effort you have to do just for even a short video. I mean, you basically walked that route at least twice for the cameras etc!!
Big truck
lot of hard work going into these vids. professional type production. 'yeah, here's the big elk trail', coming out of the bush and just finding it: with the camera there waiting. He's been out, planted the camera, gone back in... makes a very good vid but damn hard work I'd say. What about doing it with one of those drones that follow you? Be easier if it worked. Ad another dimension even.
Are you planning on opening up all those roads this summer? I reckon it would make for some good firewood as well as something different from the usual.
Any gold in those creek beds? Looks like a good area.
Heavy rain ? If so why on one side of the road only ?
Spring snow melt ? Samething.
Beaver dam collapse can make seriuod destructions, but saw nothing beaver related.
So ????
Thanks for the walk.
Climate change of course
Next video fixing a road washout with rocks and stuff totally not a stream thingy
Could have ended about 7:30 where you disappeared into the light.... a bit of heavenly music maybe....
Question: why the rubber/cotton gloves instead of leather? I'm sure you have a valid reason!
Old rock hmm
Thats lot of fixing
When they finally find your body, at the least they can rewind and see what happened... 😁
thats hilarious
Do you have gold where you are?
Love watching ur videos
Maybe an QUESTIONS AND ANSWER could be a future video
Any thoughts on replacing the MF for a skid steer?
Really easy to transport and versatile with alot of different attachments
I watched one of ur video when logging dead trees, u struggled a bit with the forks. Have u thought about an skid steer with log grapple and a winch attachment
Kind regards from sweden
Get your gold pan out 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 may not have to mill another log , just for fun🪵 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
How does he get so many camera shots? Does he just go place the camera, turn around to do a shot, repeat???
Was that a huge downed tree you pasted?
Do you ever check/pan for gold on your property?
Don't end a sentence with a preposition ...now you'll probably have to go back thru your dialogue to find out which one it was ..LOL...Enjoy your stuff immensely . I'll leave you with this .."Don't know what to end this comment with. "
"This is the sort of nonsense, up with which I will not put!" Winston Churchill; speaking of ending a sentence with a preposition...
Water, nature's earthmover.
Yogi Bear, nobody's fool.
You sure put a lot of miles on those shoes making this video.
Are you going to let your camera beat you up the hill every time. Let me guess it has three legs you only have two.😂
You need the guberment to give you an expurt opinion and a bill, (big bill you know the one) to stop moar erosion ha.
That's a navigable waterway of the United States of America. lol.
Damn Nixon. Fool had too many smarty pants thoughts. Did some good things too.
But its still worth a fortune unless the state confiscates it.
Does anyone else out there worry just a little about Michael stravaiging around apparently on his own all the time ?
Perfectly ordinary to me, what makes me a bit worried is the solo logging he does.
I don’t. He seems perfectly capable.
I would be panning for gold just to see if it's there$$
Now why would a government body be upset for you fixing a stream to make it better?
I like to think that I’m helping you pay your taxes by liking and commenting ❤…
