Still a lot in there to hand cut figured I’d speed up what I could and it makes for nicer yarding having everything bucked plus bunched.

Is that Rice Logging?

Yes.
My Buddy works for Triad as a field mechanic, he sends me alot of cool pictures. He ports a wicked saw as well and is well know down in the valley for his CR500 port work.

I recognize that landing and the Berger yarder I believe. They lost their other tower and processor and whatnot there. I saw them salvage what was left, and bring the new stuff in. Small world.

Very nice - that's my favorite type of hand falling right there - good quality second-growth with one or two clear long logs on favorable ground.

I got to cut a piece in 2006 down near Glendale that was a faller's dream - good, straight 55 year-old second growth with a clear long log in every tree.
There was no brush, no big rocks - fairly flat river-bottom type ground. It was only five acres though.

I’m back to hand cutting and loving it. Close job, good ground. Hand cutting is just in my blood I guess. It’s good to be back. Sprocket misses hiding your stuff @HYPERSAWS

It sure helps walking through with the machine first making all the vine maple disappear and fill those holes. I’m very lucky that all but a few little corners are all cat ground and there’s still a few areas we haven’t touched at all. I got a few more pictures of the area with the go pro for a little different view I’ll post up as well.

Did you sell the buncher or is it idling waiting for some work closer to home?

How do you guys like those 500’s VS the 462’s?

 

[Skeans1]

Here's another shot of the same area most of them are pretty slick for a good ways up.

Felling, skidding and hauling some big Ash

I prefer the 500 over the 462 personally
