Lovely video. It reminds me of a similar lumber company based in Philadelphia. It has a big mill timber operation in the Philippines. The Insular Lumber Company. Harvesting area in the island of Negros Occidental.
It could have been my reader. Married couples found employment at temporary camps that served commerce operation staff. From the blacksmith, cooks, engineers, livestock wagon drivers, merchant. etc.

True and world-wide forestry reserves are low and not cheap. We may yet visit a day when lumber only attends the wealthy all other commerce must use something else. Recycled plastic is now available in mold forms that can be fitted like lumber
If you go out into any forest area in the Puget Sound region, now and see the stumps, which are most still standing 125+ years later almost all the stumps are chard blackened/Burnt Why is that ?
Puget sound I would not know, but not too far north of there, just across the border, in fact, there was a big wild fire in what is and has been for many many years now, developed and densely populated land.

Reasons differ. The most scary involves an earthquake that sinks a forest. Below the adjacent sea level. Dead trees killed by saltwater burn easily. By yearly electrical storms and our species. I reside nearby for kayaking.
Most of what I saw there couldn't have been more than 100 years old. The one going into the head saw was only about 60 or so years old.

@@joeblow2063 If these trees were 60 years old.....who was planting them there in the 1860s?? I saw no old stumps (from before) where they were cutting these trees down anywhere. I think these were original, 1st cutting, non human-planted trees.

Super cool video!! Thanks for sharing!
Ford ship "Onondaga" 13:05 sunk 22.22 hours on 23 July 1942 by U-129, 20 dead, 14 survivors.
interesting
Wow
Thanks for adding that.
It Relates Quite well.
As we have known must have been OUTSIDE, But maybe (doubtfully)
sneaked into the sound.

I wonder how often those guys saw Big Foot? Ive head from a lot of different sources about his sighting in Washington state.
Cool. No ponies in this one. Well put together film.
I cant imagine the physical condition these guys must have been in to do this job......

Symptoms often have a medical explanation. God knows.
Dang. We’ll probably never see trees of that size in this state again.
no shit...all those greedy idiots cut them down
Redwoods have been transplanted within England. Go figure...
Music gives it a fantasy feel. Like I'm watching hobbits logging.

Why is that ?
They used to “slash burn” after logging. The old growth stumps have endured through the cycles

How old are the trees harvested in this video? 100 or 1000 years old?
Those forests had trees that were more toward the 1000 year mark
