Literally just waiting for your new episodes, theyre the best! especially with Randy ! xD
You and Randy need a full time gig together
My husband, my father in law and grandfather in law, were all loggers up here in Northern Az . My father in law for 40 years, he was a supervisor for Southwest Forest Ind.They also had their own logging called Merchant Timber Fallers.. His grandad was from Arkansas and moved to Williams when Sagainaw- Manistee opened a sawmill there, he was a blacksmith and had made the chokers among other things in the 30' 40&50's..Here in Arizona, we have the largest stand of Ponderosa Pine in the world, never heard of black pine. Sadly at the end of the 1980's the Serra club pushed to shut down all our forrests, because they said the spotted ouw nested in the Ponderosa and were on the endangered list. So all our Forrest that had been groomed and kept up were left to sit. In 2002 we had the Rodeo- Chediski fire, then the Willow fire that needlesly burned hundreds of thousands of beautiful forests we won't see again in our lifetime. Oh and it turned out the spotted owl, was the Mexican spotted owl and they prefer nesting in buildings instead of trees! There aren't ant huge ponderosa as there once were, seems the small pulp wood ones need thinned out to me. The little ones get in clusters and compete for water, plus the scrubby oak is in with a lot of younger ones. Those new machines that take the branches and brush off the trees once you fall them ars so nice to have. So many cut their feet, toes off the old way. My husband ran the old ambulance and had to put the toes on ice rush them into the Flagstaff Hospital. It's still a dangerous profession, but not as bad. They lived in thr logging camps as well. If you ever want to hear about the old ways. We have a page called " Northern Arizona Logging a bygone era.."
Cool work Jake, looks a lot like south central British Columbia and Eastern Washington.
When pine trees drop their needles they draw the nutrients out of them first, this makes them acidic and that’s one of the reasons for less underbrush. Other factors come into to play also. Too long to go into detail though.
Also enjoy your content and tell Gordie that it’s a time he started making Husqvarna stuff, lol.
Ray
Been waiting for your AZ tree felling experience! Awesome stuff Jake, Gordy and Tony. Super nice meeting the three of you in person in Prescott as well. You all are genuine guys. Mark
damn that machine is an absolute beast.. doing tens of people's hours of work in minutes
Here in Canada they use a feller buncher. Cuts tree. Strips tree. Cuts to length and places in pile. It’s basically the same machine but with a rotating head and saw to initially grab and cut the tree. It eliminates the guy with the saw. Hillsides are obviously different equipment.
Great to see a bigger operation. Also very nice to see Gordy again. it has been a minute !
Love seeing how you guys felling in USA here in England it’s totally different all the trees be done with much smaller saws but we are finding it hard to get hold of the new husky’s and 500i are near enough impossible to come by
I logged for 35 years of my life and loved every minute of it
Oh WOW! How neat! Tree almost finished with THAT machine.
Pine Savannas will always take my breath away. Perfect places
This forest needs a thin for sure though, making our wild landscapes profitable is what keeps them from the dozer
That is the coolest machine I've ever seen!
You look like a poster boy for JC Penny’s with your new shirt and jeans! I grew up in big wood country in Sandy Oregon in 1950’s and 1960’s, never saw a logger as clean as you!
That's very cool they had you guys come out. And cool that you guys came out...
Was in Flagstaff from the UK in 2013 they have some beautiful forest thank you for the video.
Really cool to see you working in an environment that more resembles mine. Lots of pine, aspen & spruce at 9200' in CO
What a neat machine thank you for sharing that with us.
you can certainly hear the differene that the elevation makes to the saws, can hear them working harder. gettting to operate different machinery to the nom would be an experience well worth it.
Oooo the 572! Been running one of these for almost 2 years and I dont have any complaints. Id gladly purchase some West Coast Saw mods here on the East Coast for it when Gordy gets the prototypes dialed in!
Great video's man with a lot of info for us beginners. Cracks me up every time I see a video and I recognize the place because I grew up in Covington WA. Thanks!
Really enjoyed this video Jacob. Awesome content. Cool to see testing of new saw parts for Husqvarna from WestCoast Saw. Big Thumbs up Gordie.
Jake,
Elevation can get you.
Back in '69 I went on an 8 day backpack trip in California's High Sierras , The Mono Lake recesses at 9 to 12 Plus K feet.
I was fairly acclimated, but it still took a couple of days at altitude to get used to it!
Coming from our flatlands here in Northern, WA right to high Arizona and ,fit or not, lumbering has got to feel bad.
I had the same problem at Long's Peak in Colorado, I was huffing and puffing from around 9 to 12K climbing the cable trail.
You got to give yourself a few days to acclimate .
Cheers,
Rik Spector
As you home school, I suggest taking your children to Flagstaff. We camped there in 1981 and found lots of educational places to visit. I imagine you saw San Francisco Peaks which tower over the city. They are an old range of volcanoes. We also went up a dormant volcano on an old school bus. Within driving distance south, are Montazuma’s Castle and Montazuma’s Well which are old native settlements and agricultural farms. Also to the east are the Painted Desert and the Petrified Forest. We spent a few days there and learned lots. 🇨🇦
Wow! I have never seen something like a stroke delimber over here in Germany. The only machines that are common here are harvesters (Holzvollernter, try and pronounce that :P) and forwarders.
Thank you Jake for these awesome videos!
We stopped using those in europe like 40 years ago. Today you can only see them in museums, and thats where they belong in my humble opinion.
😅😂🤣 First tree you fell sounded like a tink when it hit the ground. Trees did get bigger. Good to see Gordy with you. Is interesting to see other places and ways of doing things. 👍👍
YES! I've been waiting on those spikes for the 572XP for a while now! I've got the other WCS ones, and I miss the captive nuts!
Awesome yall. Great job to you and gordie. Stay safe.
Jake, so you got to play with the "big boys tools" 😂
Are so much fun to watch!
Colorado Springs elevation is a little over 6k’ and it would take me about a week or so to get used to the thinner, drier air. Less greenery, more brown. You also need to keep drinking fluids so headaches don’t settle in. I always had a bottle of water or a glass of tea in my hand. So glad I moved away.
I never thought about the higher elevation affecting the chainsaw motors!
So stoked whenever I see your new uploads. You are the only guy I have the bell notification on for.
Oh wow thank you!
greetings from slovenia! great content and making americas forestry watchable. never have i seen such a machine like that delimber you operated, with great ease for first timer. but can't unsee the fact that the front plate of delimber needs to be tightened up. anyway i do not want it to sound like smarta*s just in the forest you never know when the accident is going to happen so good luck and have a great day.
Great video. Been thru the Flagstaff area twice, once by ground, driving and once by air via UH-60L Blackhawk, on our way home to Oregon, MedEvac support for military training exercise in New Mexico.
None of that is black or yellow pine Jake. It's all ponderosa. Arizona boasts the largest contiguous stand of it on the planet.
Yellow pine is ponderosa pine
@@lancehorrocks1305 you're right
I love this work. ...
Well young man that was a nice video. Think I'm going to start calling you the chameleon. You seem to fit in everywhere you go. That's a gift.
And you're also a pretty good equipment guy. Kudos to Gordy and Tony.
Thanks for sharing.
Those pull through de-limbers are cool.
Up in the mountains in outside of flagstaff. It is so beautiful up that way.
The stroker footage at 17:00 was awesome!!
Wow interesting..it is a lot of different logging then what we do here in the south..
Did a logging job in Flagstaff/Sedona and we rented a stroker machine from Joe Dirt. They called it the Delimbinator. Cool machines. All my saws are hopped up and I think they run pretty good, then I go to lower elevations and they really rip. Herd you guys were in Preskit, would have been cool to meet you guys. Keep up the good work Jake and Gordy
Yeah, would have cool.
I used to work on a skidder up here in canada throughout high-school its a fun job really. Long hours tho haha. Love your videos keep it up.❤
Welcome to the SW! Yes, pine and fir and spruce but at different Elev..
Those are Awsome machines n how they work
Nice you came to flag..we use those wood to help our Navajo elder stay warm.some people volunteer to go pick them up and haul them back...I'm good friend AJ Meyers help our people out alot..thx for the video
Hell yea boys getting after it, love seeing some west coast saw stuff coming out for the new huskys deff be getting some stuff for my saws
Damn, you guys are good 😀👍 I've always enjoyed seeing craftmen at their work. Keep the vids coming :)
Great job Jake guys you look so clean out there buddy LOL everything on looks brand-new God bless my friend
Thanks! You too!
Shout out from New Zealand love the content 👌
Come work with us in Texas! I work for a local family owned company with a killer setup for our size! Your videos got me interested in the job too. We’re hot and humid as usual right now. We have a Canadian beast and he’s struggling!
If you smell the bark of the ponderosa pines it smells like vanilla. Not sure if all pondo's but Arizona ones do
Love the content!
I lived in Phoenix for 7 years at the turn of the century. Lots of pines in Flagstaff country.
Very cool to see how 'the other guy does it! Have Saw, Will Travel !
dream job right there fellas! good work. I’m 19 and hoping to join the logging industry in the coming years. lots of love from BC Canada!🇨🇦
When you were done with the tree saw / delimber you should've said, "This machine available now for purchase at sappy supplies, free shipping today only."
Great Video!!! Nice place and good job .. Ciao from Italy.
More of this please 🤘🏻
I remember that great fire flagstaff had back in the 80"s off of I-40 right before the town, there was a Resort\truck stop. Use to pull in there for fuel and food. Huge this place was. that fire burned it
down, went across I 40 thru flagstaff and on the west side. turned trees to ash, soil to glass and burned the entire stretch of 40 from all maps.. they rebuilt that place, moved it north more. So Jake you must travel more in the mtns there...
Love it. Also just ordered a speedcut nano conversion for my new 2511 from sappy supplies, keep up the good work!
Awesome! Thank you!
I am thinking about a 2511- what do you think of it, and what length bar did you choose? Thanks in advance 😊
Jake- you are a professional, and I know that you can answer a question that I have pondered for a while…..why is the notch so shallow, I have cut trees more than half way, and go to the back and cut, the trees fall down. Y’all cut around a third, go to the back, and hammer wedges. If you are fighting a hard lean, and you know that it will not go where you want it, then that would make sense. But straight trees? I don’t get it. Please advise…😊. Also, I spent my formative years in the Phoenix area…the desert is beautiful just after a rain (seldom rains, cuz it’s the desert) the flowers are all kinds of colors and it’s absolutely stunning! But in my area, we have mesquite trees. Scrawny tangled things that have fir type of leaves and hard as anything you have ever come across. Good thing is that they are small. Bad thing is that they are small, and the wood is beautiful, hard, and really rare (and expensive if someone has taken the time to mill it). I have followed you since the huge church tree that you craned. You don’t let dust grow on your gear! And Gordy is a National Treasure! 😅 😊
Love your channel Jacob! Would love to fall timber with you! I’m super interested in what Gordy has in the works with 572 exhaust. I’m looking to get more out of my 572, so hopefully he gets something on the market soon! Keep the awesome content coming!
Interesting video. I live in Florida and they harvest a lot of pines here, but I've never seen that limb stripping machine before. It's very efficient. Nice job on your first time operating it.
Thanks!
My buddy that works for an Irving subcontractor in my part of Canada uses a feller buncher. It's impressive how accurately those machines can be operated. He cuts birdseye maple, and that's sought after enough that every centimeter you can get out of a tree matters.
Hallo wie wurde das Holz gerückt?
I used to live in Arizona its nice there
Cool video, I have hunted in Arizona all my life and seen the equipment out there but rarely see anyone using it. We have a couple hundred acres of timber in SC we take the limbs and other debris left over and make Bio-mass out of it.
I enjoy your channel. Years ago I was the largest Jonsereds dealer in Utah. When I was a little boy my grandfather, as a forest ranger, was over the timber sales in Northern Arizona. Just FYI that area is the largest stand of blackjack pine in the world!
Very cool!
@@GuiltyofTreeson 👍
Cool video!! That equipment is awesome!
I think so too!
I’m always amazed how sharp these saws are. Just throwing chunks.
Softwood helps too . Haha
Ported and square ground!
Graduated high school in Flagstaff. Cool little town. Lots of trouble with fires though
Don't seem so little now. They stick houses any where and every where. Has big city traffic now... and of course, too many hippies. Now they had a Wolfe running around there for a while.
Hey, maybe Joe Dirt can run that wolf through the limber.....
@@jamesmooney5348 If there is one then there's more wolf's your state probably reintroduced them alot of states are doing it behind closed doors
I could see where the stroker delimber is still good for knocking off those big pine limbs. Don't see very many of them in the Inland Northwest anymore.
This was sick Jake!
Never seen pine forests on flat land like that. Most of our radiata pine is on hills. But pine grows twice the speed in NZ as in its homeland of Canada. They good stems on those pines there in Arizona.
Great video
doooooble wedge. you rule dude
Cool vid man!
You guys have got to some some of the black hills they’re almost completely mechanical I think you’d enjoy seeing these machines
That delimber is pretty sweet!
Nice country 👍
The loose bolt at 28:33 driving me crazy!
I lived in. Seattle And now I live in. Phoenix Arizona. I'm not a lover but I know what born and raised in phoenix
For me, your channel is very good, with a beautiful view. My eyes and mind are refreshed after a long time working with the computer.
Nice working and very calm feel in the forest on that nice weather! Its only husqvarna! 🤣
Great video! Super cool! What is your favorite chainsaw?
Any tips for when you cut the wedge to get the bar to line up when you do the angle cut. I seem to be off almost all the time
Nice job guys, too bad the saws didn't like it cuz ground chain in pine is a good time! Well more fun when they're a little bigger than you guys are in but it's still cuttin either. I want to run a stroker and buncher in the worst way, you took to it pretty quick Jake
Tell Gordy we need more Inbred Jed shirts & stickers!! I missed out on the opportunity to order mine lol pleeeeaaasssseee!
Sincerely, A groundy from Michigan
Do you know if WA does similar things with their forestry butts? Can we go out and collect them? Some of those pine butts would be good to mill for smaller projects like shelving or signs.
Big toys!
Pretty cool that they leave the button for folks.
Wish Washington loggers did that.
There's a paper/logging company that leases land, north of Spokane, that requires a $80 permit just to access the land.
Where is that located im and hour north and didn’t know you get permits for non forest service land
@Monte Barnes NW of Springdale.. towards Hunters.
I.E.P. leased 40 acres, and they've gated it off.
The thing that really annoyed me was that they cut access off to "free to hunt" private property.
Their website shows only a small portion of their leased timber.
IEP...Inland Empire Paper
@@Eric-gi9kg weird I’m in the Newport area and I know a lot of land is owned by the lumber mills
That job would be a dream with cut to length machines
If I may, two things you do to slow your exit plan. First, you are cutting sooo close to the ground that when you are finishing the back cut you are kneeling and almost sitting. Second, you are leaving your saw in the cut as you’re hammering in your wedge and about to fell the tree. As the tree starts to go you have to bend down to retrieve your saw. Both of these things slow down your retreat and increase the chance of a misstep and potential tumble. It’s not so perilous here but if you take those habits back to hilly ground, for instance, or other larger species time can become more critical.
You finally came to Arizona! I live down in the valley and I love it because i'm a desert rat. But if I want to go to the mountains? I head North all 4 seasons.. One of the best parts of Arizona is we don't have all that underbrush.😊
Jake, Gordy and Tony met me at my property and felled 7 trees while they were here. They are super good guys. It will be an episode that will be posted soon. I too live in the Valley but own property in the Bradshaw Mountains just north of Mount Union.
@@markp.9707 That's awesome I love but following them on youtube. I reside in Peoria
@@rhondasweeney7271 I sent Jake an email over a year ago because I have been following him since East Side Treeworks and then he broke off and started this new channel.
I like big tree, say hello form kalimantan Indonesia 👍👌
Another good video 💪
Glad you enjoyed it
If you wanted to try something diffrent for a year would you be a logger or run that huge debarker machine?i enjoy your tree falling/vacation videos.
You can get elevation sickness especially if you go that high pretty fast .
Do they normally fall trees with a feller buncher?
That terrain almost makes it look like a fun place to work.
A little spinny at the start of the video.... Love the videos!
SHOULD INCORPORATE A SMALL TRIPOD TO ROLL SIDE ANGLE STILL. WIULD BE COOL AND HELP WITH THE EXCESIVE MOVEMENT FROM THE POV CAM.
IM SURE IT WILL MAKE A TON MORE WORK THOUGH.
JUST THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A COOL MIX
#1
I've been waiting almost a month for the tree service I contacted to come and remove two live oaks and trim a third. If they don't get to it soon, I might have to fly you to Alabama to have you take 'em down.
Jacob can you and Gordy do a video on how to tune a manual carb saw please
Makes me miss logging.
