Filmed in early January, 2021.
Northern Willamette Valley.
Hopefully everone had a great Christmas in 2024. Best wishes for the coming New Year in 2025!
A little bit of bantering with my cuz, Gary. But,,, this is his job so I "get to follow orders"... The dialog (with some hand signals) gives insight into the thinking.
Using my 2100 with a 42" bar. Had the chain "somewhat" dialed in. There is room for improvement, of course.
The bigger trees in this strip are four long logs (40s) tall. I wouldn't say they are soft on the stump.
I wasn't sure how well the "little excavator that could" was going to handle this tree. So, I put the featherweight in as a precautionary measure. Not what happened, but the tree was moving forward and then it was moving back. Resultantly, the jack was coming out and then went back in...
In the end, larger & tall fir went where it was supposd to and missed the stumps in the lay.
As always, enjoy working with my cousin Gary!
Bleesings to all in your camp.
Thanks for watching.
