Com: Sonseere10: Very high quality job on that Western Red Cedar (not Cypress).
This guy is a first rate professional. Three taps from the ax and down she goes. Right where he wanted it
. That is how it is done. I really like the makeshift springboards. Good job. WOW!..
Com: Gwailow : I am Canadian and you can drive for about 12 hours not even get out of the province and all you see is trees.
We have areas the size of small countries we don't even go too, yes we log and trust me it is done in a very sustainable way.
Pine beetles and forest fires take way more than people, and now we harvest the pine Beetle kill.
I too am environmentalist, but seriously most people way overreact to this...
Com: Peter k: My house was built 40 years ago in Southern California probably out of Douglas Fir and pine . I'm a general contractor / architect by trade .
Trees that are purposely grown for lumber use . and Or tree clearing for fire break by the national forestry is fine by me . It's ones who get enjoyment by defacing nature so no one can enjoy it any longer .
Could imagine what a gorgeous view from that tree it was. Now there's a stump there maybe somewhere else in 150 yrs someone will appreciate that particular tree for what it is and let it be.
