What the H happened to that axe, Jed? Cutting edge looks like it got tossed in the chipper.

Hah, Tom... We don't have nice frozen ground like you lucky guys.
In the winter we have to build a gigantic plywood causeway to even think about taking it on someone's property. Most of our back-yard jobs are bid to leave the wood.Gary: Just took a little baby (10') top by hand because of the back lean, so not much sway.
B: Jim nailed it. Weird, sawdust obscurred shot. Flip-phone cam.

Fair enough, I wouldn't build a plywood highway for one tree's worth of Doug Fir branches either!

Yeah the Dingo is pretty sweet though... We missed it today on this rotten White Pine that we had to haul. Man, it was just a rotten tree day....
We had to side-wall these Cottonpigs. That's St. Pattric way down there.
You can just see daylight through this face-cut. (No back-cut in yet.)
More snow closer to home.

Massive root damage years ago, serious decline as you tell from this picture in July.
OSHA showed up today (Orange hat) and pow wowed with us. Made several comments, a recommendation that we implemented immediately and he went about his day! I was nervous but he was a cool cat.

Nasty cottenweeds Jed. Ours out here are a different type but still just giant weeds. Better pic of the ax today I see.
Nice Willie. That crane boom up in the air is a calling card for them OSHA boys. I'm just wondering why you guys went with the block on the crane right away. I've only used it on the but logs before. I know you can make bigger picks but it slows the crane down. Just curious

Crane op decides on single part or multi part lines. Not slow at all, that's what the throttle is for.

Crane certainly caught his attention but I was between 2 highways and very near interstate 5, pretty high profile

I didn't know if you were intentionally vague? What can we learn from your encounter?

Idk, the main thing he took issue with was Doug had a 461 on his saddle instead of it having it's own tie in. He liked that the ground crew had chaps and hard hats and 2 tie ins with the saw etc. Didn't like the load flying over Doug's head but realized there was no other way to do it. They can always find something, he chose to not be an ass to a crew that was being efficiently safe.
