Loaded truck pics.

Those must be handy Brad! The extender worked well for me. Just can’t see anything you are hauling back there.

 

Having used a ladder for years they were the norm on a work truck. Ladders still go up there, just not as often.

 

Friday's load

 

Cold Trigger Finger I messed up, by not thinking ahead. I’m coming to Delta this morning for kids Dentist appointments. I should have coordinated to get a trailer load of fire killed for my bundled wood. I will text you later. We don’t have any in Tok- fire is still going.

 

That’s a nice load of fire kill.

 

Yesterday's 1.5 cord load . As ive been having an impossible time getting the trailer lights to work on my gooseneck trailer .
And im totally incompetent at that sorta thing . Ive been hand mucking the wood and skidding out with my pickup. . Still , it only took 4 hours yesterday to yard buck , load and lash this 1.5 cord load . Thanks to God !!!!

 

I need my trailer working so I can mobe my Little Ox to the woods.

 

Either that or hire it done . And that is Expensive !

 

Good looking load.

 

Is this some of your fire kill you were telling me about?

 

Fly me out, I’ll fix your trailer lights and help you cut! I’ll even cook you dinner! Lol

Picked up a nice load of ash this weekend. Replaced the 91 F150 with this 06 Tundra and its working well.

 

I’ve had an 03 since 2010 and it’s been super reliable. I’ve thrown some wood at it too!

 

The start of a 14 hour work day .
0545 heading to the woods with Little Ox loaded and lashed . And lights on the gooseneck .

 

Got it to the woods safe and sound

 

And got 2 cord bucked off their rootwads . topped , yarded to the landing. Measured and bucked to stovelength . 16" Loaded and stacked in the truck with 1.5 cord.
And delivered to the customer.
It was a long day ! And a Busy day. Took 2 , 10 minute breaks . Got home for a late dinner . Then evening chores . I was sure glad the next day was a rest day !!!!

 

I just have to ask. I have never been to Alaska but have friends that have ridden motorcycles there and remarked how much worse the mosquitoes were. In MN where I live they are the state bird. So how were the mosquitoes working in those woods all day? I have to believe they were awful. How do you deal with them?

 

Yesterdays We did 2 loads 2 cord each.

 

Don't think I saw a single mosquito . This year they weren't bad. There is a while in June and July they can be a bother. . When things are growing fast . Now we are into late summer . The fireweed has died off.
Sometimes after the first frost , the white socks get bad for a bit . That's why I usually pass on early season hunting.
