Loaded truck pics.

Had to move some wood out of the barn as need to do repairs on it because of wind damage. moving it here into the boiler house for next years heat. 7 loads made just over 9 cord. The mighty 1/2 ton survives again.

 

That's awsome kevin!

 

She's got the squat :stacke:

 

Tends to do that when your hauling mainly Beech!

 

That looked like a all day job to me.

 

All I can say is "WOW"!!!! Bet that steering is a might light now.

 

Not quite loaded, but on its way...

 

Is that a type of pine you have there. It looks like pretty good wood and pretty tall.

 

I got your loading technique figgrd out Kevin, load it until the tailgate is at the door threshold height.

 

Is that a fir?

What's with all the Forest Service blue paint on it? Is that their marks showing that it's allowed to be bucked into far wood , so that if someone stops you they CAn see the whole tree was marked?

 

It was marked 'DO NOT CUT' and then that was crossed out... and yes, it is a Douglas Fir. It's actually pretty decent firewood around here.

 

Anything to save fuel from extra trips, environment is the main concern.... My suspension is called frame flex and air pressure in the tires!

 

Do not get any fir around here.

 

Haha we don't either. I saw some baby ones when in school. And from what I have seen of it on TV and in pictures plus his area, I assumed.

 

We have millions of them around Northern California...

We have lots of other stuff, too.

 

I would venture to say billions, if not trillions.

 

Sure makes some primo lumber!

 

Lol indeed. Even a 2500 will squat and flex with a beech load like that.

 

You must be slacking Dex. I see dandelions in your yard!!!

Just messing with you, your place is beautiful. I love seeing pics of it.
