tj and cameron taking a well deserved break. these 'stumps' were later cut down and left pretty much intact for milling.
as mentioned previously access was an issue as the trees sat in the middle of the yards. what couldn't be carried was carted or rolled to the nearest gate to be loaded on the trailer. timk made 5? 6? trips to the dump with the stuff too small for firewood. he used a tractor to lift the big ones over the fence and then down the alley to the trailer.
speaking as someone who has trouble backing out of my driveway it was fascinating to watch timk maneuver the loaded tractor through the tight turn and down the alley.
