You see it... we saw it !

As some of you may have heard we are into another round of selective logging. Things have been going pretty well, and it appears that the loggers may be finished in another couple of weeks with their part of the operation. Then we plan on having them smooth out the logging roads, push the tops to the side of the ridges, push in a few ephemeral pools for the amphibians, and ground nesting,... (aka: Gallinaceous birds. ) In the mean time spring is fast approaching as always. Per usual it is hell trying to get everything done, and get out of the woods before the bluebirds start their thing.... with the turkeys right on their heels. What I wouldn't give for another month of winter! After twenty some years of doing this the feeling is the same every year....never enough time. :( On a brighter note we did seem to uncover where the inordinate amount of rust was coming from on the skidders though,....I believe that the pictures will do most of the explaining. This is a wilderness shot. The guys are whizzing on the equipment again...could not find a tree because we chopped them all down!

One of them got their zipper caught...the others looked around to see who would help. Priceless!
