    After a pancake breakfast at a local fire department (Pierrepont) I dropped the Maple (Sugar I hope) then I went to another area where I took care of topped off Cherry and some White Pine.....some dead pine too.

    Some of the deer are up front checking out if any of it is a food source, they're eating away.

    About two inches of it was fresh the other day. It will be the middle of April before I can get back to the big trees that are down.

    I'm hoping I can thin this area out enough that we'll get some new trees growing, I'll be working it this week depending on the weather.

    The deer finally found that sugar maple late this afternoon.

    Nice work Woody! Looks like you got a lot done. Hopefully you didn't put down as many pancakes as you cut rounds today......

    All the Cherry is smaller, some will be used for coasters, the last two topped off Pines were good wood.

    By fall you'll see a big difference in that area, all the dead pine should be down an the smaller pine should be down.
