The other end of the spectrum

I do almost no wood with when it's hot out. I try not to at least. There's been days of cutting in shorts, chaps, and t shirts, when I had to, like this...

Same pile, 2 different angles. Neighbor had 2 ash taken down with a boom saw. I had to get the wood off of his lawn in short order. Which meant sweating because of the temperatures.

 

Atlas 300 for me. They are rubber palmed and fingered, so they stay dry in snow a lot longer than most gloves. They hold up very well too. They are thin so they don't interfere with running the saw or anything

 

I guess I'm driven more by when the score shows up. Rainy and steamy this summer brought in 7-8 cord. The fall before, 3-4 cord after a Thanksgiving Day felling at a friends house.
So far weather has not been a factor in whether or not I go out and work a score.
Sweating is healthy.

It usually works out that any storm damage at friends houses happens during hot weather. I can't say no to helping or the free wood.

 

May be an odd question but was that done by Reon's monster tree service?

I haven’t figured that out yet Brad. Will be starting a new “march” once I do

 

I don't prefer to do my hoarding in the summer heat but in the past I've found (or they have found me, lol) huge monster tree's that landowners want gone, so I've had to work in the heat of summer. When it gets over about 88-90 w/ humidity, I do pause and wait for the wave to pass. And being well over 3 years ahead I can afford to not work out in sub freezing temps. Spring and fall are the sweet spots for me. But if opportunity knocks, I open the door.

 

I can work in most any weather, but slow way down when it gets too hot out.

 

I prefer January to April as the ground is frozen and the temps hover around freezing. That and summer is for fishing and fall is for hunting.

 

Today is just plain nasty. 35 cloudy, windy and everything is wet from the 1”+ of rain last night

 

I enjoy hoarding in the cold as long as thec wind isn't too bad. Ground is frozen and no mud. I especially enjoy splitting by hand. Its quiet and still. No one else is out. It's peaceful to me.
I do majority of my hoarding in winter.

I'll also process when it's hot. Not as fun but nothing wrong with working up a good sweat.

Like it was said, fall is for hunting.

I absolutely hate working in spring when it's mud season! I avoid that time of year as much as I can.

 

No, that tree service is a bit far away. However it's basically the same equipment. It's definitely impressive.
