    What's the tree behind the saw ?
    It looks a little bit like the Atlantic White Cedar ( actually a cypress) that grows here.

    The tree behind the saw is a Juniper. there are a couple variety's, Utah Juniper and Rocky Mountain Juniper. I think that one is a RockyMountain. The locals just call them all cedars because they smell like cedars.

    Thanks Buzzsaw. Mostly softwood, but there is some scrub oak that can be worthwhile with some 6-8" diamter trunks. Also some cedar ( juniper ) like the one in the photo behind the saw, but we are only allowed to cut dead and down wood using BLM or Forest service permits, and those things live forever so they are getting harder to find !!

    That is why I rely mostly on burns. Drought resistant to say the least!!
