    Been cutting this treeline for some time, watchin the recorded stuff later on makes you aware of your mistake i figured out at some point.
    I hope you enjoy as much as i did... standing in a ditch while cutting trees aint my favorite.

    Neither do I like cutting in a ditch, creek or river. That is hard on the body.

    I hear ye, the restricted movement bothered me most. In the end it was worth the trouble - situations been solved, next time even better.
    Should be a around 4fm =1,10358 cord.. i got out of it so far. Theres still some trees layin, waiting to join the pile -will be a bit more in the end.

    The last time I was cutting in the ditch bank, I slipped. Danged back kept me down for 2 weeks. I then just swore off cutting those trees, and there are a lot of them along the 1/4 mile+ distance we have along the creek. It is not worth it.
