The forestry and logging pictures thread

Nothing like a little snow the beginning of August.

Danger tree or hazard tree a snag could come down on a hot shot, the requirement to leave snags standing well harvesting an area is nuts honestly.

Big respect for you guys. While the rest of us are running away from the fire, you guys are running into it.

I have huge respect for those guys I don’t deal in the fire other then what’s required for us to keep working year round.

I was lucky enough to do it as a full-timer for 20 seasons. Fire fighting and timber cutting are two of the greatest jobs in the world. Nowadays, I'm just another *a-hole sitting behind a desk...

I've seen several variants of those...I think they're pretty much junk.

The first Supt. I worked for invented a tool he called the "Chingadera", which was similar to the Reinhart, except it has a tree-planting hoedad handle.

Two really fit guys with Chingaderas and two with Super P's can move a heck a lot of line in an hour, even in heavy timber.

The good old days, standing to watch a crown run up close, until the chainsaw debris on your nomex starts smoking.
Did I mention it was hot?
