Sweetgum is kinda lighter. My best guess without being there to measure each log (basically a quick armchair guesstimate) would be somewhere in the 9-11k range per load.
Well, that was my guess. With the prizes mentioned, I wouldn't feel right about changing my answer now! Besides, I am still changing the oil on both the jet and helicopter. It's taking a bit longer to find the right filters here in the U.P.
Hmm, sounds a lil fishy...pretty sure those old Lycoming engines had serviceable cyclone filters on them...
Well, looks like brenndatomu is the winner, winner, chicken dinner. He gets the jet ride with wildwest as the pilot... The logs averaged 765 lbs each for both loads Load A... Load B Total net 19060#... Who gets the chopper ride?? Thank y'all for playing along.
