have u been drink'n??

The bad sound effects on these shows drives me crazy.

Yes

Came here two years late to say this lol

welll... if they were proper OG and actually 3-4' at the stump and 250' tall, then yeah, you would get about 3k per, or more if they are really tall, trees like that each one would be a load.

I disagree. I think they all are a bunch of ego maniacs who curse each other out way to much for absolutisly no reason. We are beyond that type of disrespect in today's society. I do like Shelby , however , down there in New Orleans. He is cool and he does the real work in comparison to what these imbosils do!

@@dperez3437 that's just how loggers are. Foul mouthed and rowdy.

I'd like to see the whole thing and a description of the cuts. They are carrying wedges but you never see them used?

😆 I wish it was that easy. Cutting down trees like that is like trying to take down an apartment building! It took the men in that episode 50 plus years of back breaking, dangerous work to be able to take on trees like that. $3,500 sounds like a lot until you’re standing in front of them. I couldn’t do it.

Downing the trees is the easy part...it's the logistics involved in moving equipment, getting the site set up and actually being able to haul the logs out of there...anyone can take a tree down but only a few can find a way to fit them on a 18 wheeler and get them to flat ground

God bless you too

Lorric Logging agreed that’s a walk in the park 😂I was cutting a 7 foot old growth red fir patch the other day and cut more and the but logs weighed more on the trucks then those all together

@@cascratcherskingcorysaltsm5526 I've seen bigger Douglas Firs on Vancouver Island...

Old growth is anything over 150 years but yeah I have seen 6 foot second growth red toads, these are decent though

@@lukeruggiero1894 k JK No, old growth is any forested area that has not been previously logged. It’s also synonymous with “virgin forest”

@@BjarneButler yes I know that. Also I enjoy your channel your a good faller

Not every cutter is literate.... some can barely use crayons

My house is made of concrete and metal, all the wood is recicled...

@@Beingahumanbeing unless you made the bricks yourself they put alot more pollution in the atmosphere then making a board does. A tree that will be replaced by another tree is the definition of sustainable! I dont think it's my logic that is pathetic.

@@pater7387 it's too bad you can't RECYCLE your education it looks like somebody else could get more use out of it. If you mean repurposed then good on ya. But if it was recycled you just doubled the pollution it took to make the first board.

You know.... thats a very simplistic interpretation on your part.... to not take this any further, by buying old restored furniture, you extend the use and its life, instead of buying new ones(make new ones from scratch takes a lot of time, money and energy in many ways). Just like when buying a car, it actually cost less money and energy (counting all the process that it takes to make a car from 0 in a factory) to buy an old car and let it die and then buy an electric one. Source of this info is the university where i’m studying, i study architechture with focus on sustainability, modesty aside. To be realistic, wood can be very nice when building, but for the sake of the future and the argument, better keep using concrete No need to be rude or angry btw, just saying Plus: think of all the time it takes to grow trees as big as the ones in the video men. Not worth to destroy

@@Beingahumanbeing in Montana where I live logging companies are required to replant the area they log I cant say for sure about Washington but it is a standard practice. With the high amount of rain fall it takes about a hundred years to grow trees that size. I hope the last question isn't serious but I'll act like it is........mining is worse for the environment and there are very few mines that can produce all the ingredients for blocks or concrete so it requires multiple mining operations. Let's not forget about the chemicals that are required for the production of both or the chemicals required for the original mining.

Make room for plenty of small new trees.

Depends on who owns the land. If it's owned by a logging company they usually replant and harvest again in a 10-20 year time frame. If it's private land the landowner gets a cut of the profit from the trees. And what they do is up to them.

@@chriss6398 10 to 20 years. Not likely.

@@nobodythatyouknow241 I dirt bike on logging roads all the time and it's actually hilarious what tiny little new growth trees they are willing to log sometimes.

@@nobodythatyouknow241 50-to 60 more like it.

@Malik Martin most cases, yes. But I really like the 390xp, for example

Trees that have reached maturity recycle less oxygen then a young tree or one at mid life. They will replant new trees. Often two for every one tree removed.

It's not on fire you idiot

Burrrrn baby burnnn 😂

@@norgepalm7315 well not anymore

@@DieselManche Could you please cite your source?

You almost always take the “double” trees at the same time because they’re usually limb tied and can’t be felled separately

They plant more trees than they cut down and help the economy more than you ever will

If it needs to be done they'll figure out a way.

@@jeffcarroll1990shock Not always as experience is your best teacher.

@@matthewbrown6163 failure is an even greater teacher.

@@jeffcarroll1990shock Death is the ultimate failure

@@matthewbrown6163 correct. Doing it the old-fashioned way gets a lot of people killed. Newer ways will minimize death.

Forests need managment to prevent forest fires

I can agree with that.

A door stop would make you pointless

Lol hemp will never replace dimensional lumber.

Bro

good thing this is a video of sustainable harvesting and not deforestation.

Say that to Brazil

SpecialDetermence or maybe ur just a know it all that most people can't stand?

What are they doing wrong?

As Americans it was fun watching Europe in the early1940s and see how much they were doing wrong.

ok chuckles, come on out and give er a go then

How long do think that's going to last

3500 a tree is roughly anyones motivation..

RICH people use it to build houses.

What do you mean

I agree with one part of your comment-The word "Men" .They are top of the food chain guys.There's lots of males today,very few men unfortunately.

If you wanna live you better start planting and stop complaining

Trees are a renewable resource. Usually the land is replanted and harvested again like a farm.

Yeah not like trees can be replanted or anything.

Not old growth timber. They're not only too small, but the Pacific Northwest is pretty good at protecting natural resources. In my home state, most old growth timber is protected by state law and the old growth that isn't directly protected is protected by roundabout ways such as road building restrictions or something of that nature. To call this stand old growth is strictly to make it sound scary for the viewer and that's all.
