Thanx for sharing this video. I'm not a logger by trade but love learning new things, lol. I would love seeing a vidja of Big Daddy 'finish' grading a job. Would be very interesting to learn how you all go about erasing the 'footprint' left by the machines left behind. The thought process Big Daddy goes through Seoul be a bonus but doubt he'd be up for that, lol. Have s great day and have a wonderful Halloween with your family. Don't forget to throw up some pictures of the costumes you all came up with!!

2 totally different operations, cottontop does full length softwood clear-cut and Wade does select cut hardwood which is alot harder to do
