So I had two giant white oaks domino one another directly across three major deer trail last year and two more red oaks up on my favorite knoll.
I finally decided to break out the power saw and open the paths back up for them to enjoy while also using the branch piles in strategic locations to help usher them in front of my favorite spots.
Also getting some killer firewood out of it but getting them up the hill has been a daunting task .
Too steep to drag logs without equipment.
I hauled a bunch with my atv and trailer but it’s so steep I have to hand roll the rounds up hill a little ways before I can load them on the trailer.
Some of the rounds i’m working on are roughly 40” wide so I’ve been splitting them on site and piling them up the hill to get later.
Lots of work but nothing beats being in the woods doing manly stuff.
