Pinyon pine sounds like good stuff. None of it here where I live. Good advice above about burning pine and other softwoods.
No. I'm aware that any of the Echo saws are pretty choked up with the stock mufflers. I'll get to it some day. I'm gona probably get the 620...
I have an Echo 620 and a 490. I'm not impressed with the 490, a 261 stihl or 550 husqvarna is 10 times the saw. The 620 is a different matter,...

Nice post and pics. Is Red alder any good as smoking wood?

Stihl 056 Mag 2 with wore out antivibe, will make you think you have white finger.
I would certainly take free Douglas fir and ponderosa pine if it was on the side of the road close to my house!
Load of western larch and Douglas fir.
