@@kirksawler1199 when I was logging, we got suckered in to a few jobs like that.. couldn't take any live standing trees, couldn't even damage the bark on them.. but had to get everything else out.. those jobs never get bid high enough..
Logging is a hard way to make a living, specially here , price of fuel is high and log prices are low, if I shipped that fir for pulp I don’t think I’d cover my fuel after paying trucking
Most of the big mills here are owned by Irving , Irving bought a lot of mills and shut them down to eliminate competition, but there are a lot people buying bandsaw mills now and custom sawing
Nice mess to deal with.. lol
Be careful!!!
There’s no end to it

@@kirksawler1199 definitely a lot harder than it used to be!! Not many mills left here. 6 have shut down in the state this year..
