    Sure did Fanatical1 and bogydave as the old girl is rusting away from me, I did this year put new rear shocks and leaf spring hangers on her-she fills my need and after replacing tranny, I hope to get a couple more years out of her as she approaches 220K-still runs like a top-I pulled those trees across the ravine into my landing area with my tow strap

    Sweet! Towstraps can work and if they break they usually do not cause damage.

    Yes bogydave, aside from that elm or whatever it is in the pic I sought ID for on another thread, that area is in the bottom of the hollow and I have shade until @ 1130-unfortunately, this beech and red oak represent the last of cool working in the mornings-what I have down now is up the ridge so have to start extra early-ash, maple, locust and cherry along with some red elm-as long as I start early though I'm ok warming up with the day...I trust this finds a transplanted Mountaineer well in AK

    Notice the nice barber chair on the red oak? It fell fine-no harm, no foul...I had a path cleared to escape...
