Hey David I just realized that you and I share the same last name, I was just curious about?

Thanks Joey, I am fortunate to have it, glad I can at least share a little bit of it on here.

@@WilsonForestLands you're welcome

Thanks Stephen. I appreciate your comments.

Thanks Ed! Yes, I have considered adding a drone. One day maybe I will consider it so seriously it will actually happen. Now I’m focused on learning how to be on camera, remembering to turn the camera on, etc. after I figure out those basics, a drone will probably be a great addition.

Thank You Paul!

Thanks for the comment, it’s good to have encouragement.

Finally, a responsible landowner who will do something about the global climate crisis.

Thanks. I have had a cabin building series in the back of my mind for a long time. That idea was for the other property where my mill is. I sometimes think about it for this one too, or maybe just an RV pad.

Winters are not real cold but cool and very rainy. Enough rain to consider it rainforest. I won’t likely be there much if any in the winter. Thanks for the comment.

Thank you Anthony. I see things people are doing on KZfaq all the time that still make me jealous.

Thank you Brent.

I had to cross some county lines to get coastal access. At least you are not in the Rogue Valley where it was 114° yesterday. Now it looks like the smoke may start drifting in there.

@@WilsonForestLands It is 95°+ up here; and the haze is a sort of a Silicon Valley grey/brown murk coming up on the southern winds. Not as bad as the Beachie Creek smoke and ash, but, ugh...

Thank you. That one is 80.

Thanks Kevin. Yes it was a shame to see that nice stand of trees go. Although they do grow quickly in that area. Wait until I go back there this summer and show you the damage that happened over the winter next to the clear cut.

There are a couple other ways to get in but that is by far the best way. When I go back to that property this summer, I’m going to have a big mess to deal with to open that road up. That clear cut triggered a lot of blow downs. There is a lot of open grass prairie in that area surrounding that property. It is believed the natives burned it frequently which kept the open grassland. Sinc that stopped Doug fir is gradually encroaching into those areas. I think the meadow was just a remnant of that that hasn’t been grown over yet.

@@WilsonForestLands wow. That makes sense. Thanks for the response.

That’s just coastal fog. It comes up river in the summer off the ocean and sometimes hangs around in area.

I was hopping that's what it was, or you'd of mentioned it! Folks that are subscribers and pay attention will want to know your chain saw sharpening techniques, for sure 🤔🧡🧡👍 Wish I was closer to score some western Red 🌲🌲🌲🧡👍👌💪

I am a little too far south for western red. We only have incense cedar here.

Winter lows are typically in the 30s and 40’s. Occasionally getting down to the upper 20s. The inland property where the sawmill is actually gets a little colder. The ocean keeps temperatures more moderated on the coast.

Thanks for the offer, good to have options.

Heck yeah buddy, have a very merry Christmas 🎄⛄ & safe new Year's. Looking forward to seeing your new videos. Your very welcome, don't forget & I'll catch up with you later 💪👍🧡👌

I don’t know about Washington. In Oregon, it’s difficult to get a dwelling permit on zoned timberland unless it’s at least 160 acres. If it’s at least 160 acres you can apply for one large tract forest dwelling permit per 160 contiguous acres or 200 non-contiguous acres. I was able to get one of those permits on a property I have but they said flat out no I can’t live in a tiny house on my own property. A dwelling must meet a certain minimum square foot requirement, have the proper rooms, proper appliances, etc. basically a normal house. They did say they would allow me to apply for a permit for up to 90 days to live in a self contained RV while doing forestry activities. I have talked to people in the tiny house movement around here. At this point with tiny houses, it’s just don’t ask don’t tell. Hopefully it’s easier for you in Washington or you can find something that doesn’t have timberland zoning.

@@WilsonForestLands thanks for the info! We appreciate it and love what you’re doing!

Thank you, all the best in finding what you are looking for.

It has big knots, a forked top, not the kind of log mills would pay much for or even want. They cut all the trees down including the poor quality ones so they can grow the type of trees they want in its place.

Won't take long and you will be getting the necessary sermons from your neighbor and large trunks of filthy money to SELL!!!😄
