[QUOTE="DoubleRidge, post: 5042584, member: 20594"] Great point on the amount of slash on the ground. On that topic...one person told me the cedars are cut and taken to an area then stripped of limbs and when they leave you will have piles of limbs in that area.....another person told me the machine they use to cut with will strip the limbs and cut the log at the location the tree is cut?.....not sure which way this operation works? Plenty of questions? I did speak with the owner of the company this afternoon. He's reviewing aerial images of our place with some type of software where he can evaluate the potential...can't remember the name of the software? Sounded interesting though......he said after he reviews the aerial images we will meet and walk the property in person and discuss options. Looking forward to meeting with him.... but unfortunately he's already told me he's 6 months out minimum and it will likely be longer....he has two crews working now and both are booked up. I guess with so few loggers dealing in only cedar they stay busy.....my understanding is most of it gets chipped into pet bedding material with some larger prime logs being sawn.... anyway....got off topic....I did explain to him the goal of improving wildlife habitat and what we hoped to accomplish and he seems to be very knowledgeable on the topic....looking forward to getting started but it sounds like it's going to be some time before we get going...but ill take pics and share what's learned along the way.
