Preferred firewood Beetle killed lodge pole pine. (Best btu’s and plentiful) Leave in the dark. Sun just coming up. Made it. Cool temps no wind. Perfect start. First trailer loaded. Little over two cords. Blocked at 16”. Just finished.Little over a cord second trailer. On the drive out. Long day cutting at 9500 to 10000 ft.
Beautiful pictures and scenery. Just something about the mountains! Do have need to tune your saws differently for thinner air?
Cleaned up all the shorties. Putting pallets down. Will start splitting and stacking next weekend. Dang 12 shifts for the next 4
Where in Wyoming are you located? I lived in a little town between Gillette and Douglas for a few yrs. Spliced conveyor belts in the coal mines there.
One more picture and thought. While running the 441 cleaning up some longer, smaller wood. New blocks were snap, crackling and popping. Love it. And love all the smells. Fresh cut wood, oil, mixed fuel. Good therapy
Love being in the mountains. Some people suffer from altitude sickness when the come from the lowlands. You should have plenty of wind. We send it your way
That has to be a sweet day working like that. I see you also have some good tools at home to save your back.
Yes the tools/toys make it easier. Like me they are becoming classics/Vintage. Wish I could use them on forest land.
Now that's what I call a load of firewood! Gorgeous view too. Do you have to bring an oxygen tank with you at that altitude?
