The Official Work Pictures Thread

Have never noticed an issue. It's not that cold here. Just a bit of snow. Next week will be above zero in the days by a good few degrees. It's not a lot of cutting either really. We'll be doing three other dead cottonwoods along this same pathway. Just drop and slash down. Left to rot as naturally as possible. We've made quite a few wildlife snags on this same creek where it's safe to do so.
 
You'll be happy to know that we commie leaflickers re-introduced the beaver about 10 years ago, and they are thriving:)
 
Hello all, did a little crane job before Christmas, a few pics for you, got another big one coming up in a couple of weeks.:)

Stupidly I thought I could just cut right through on the big lump using wedges, I nearly made it but the bar was pinched on the last 1/4 inch of wood, I had to take the power head off and get down in shame;)

The crane really struggled breaking that last little bit.
 
Hey yall!

I'm trying. I lurk a lot, hard to keep up with everything.

This place is blowing up over the last year or two!

Kudos to all the old dogs and new blood.
 
Yes the House looks good lately8)

Well it warmed up to -10C lately and I decided to get away from 2 months of cabin fever and get back to a 60 tree removal job I put off till spring.
Feels real good for the body and soul.:) Even figured out how to use my camera's timer.:D

When I look at Willard's pics and all the others from the frozen north I always think how hard it must be to make a living up there, here in Western Europe you lose very few days to the weather.
What do you do in those periods? You can only change blades and sharpen saws so often.
