Yeah it would have been a very heavy load.
Our hardwoods average weight is around 1100kg to 1200kg a cubic meter green.
1000kg = 1 tonne

LOT’s of wooded acres here. But the lack of snow has me wondering if this is some kind of dream…

According to the weather experts, this could be the future of winter. May need more tracks for equipment.
