Great to see there are still a few young ones that know what hard feels like. Nice job handling that saw and dropping that big guy. Be proud of yourself.... Most 20 year olds wouldn't even know how to start a chainsaw non the less operate one. Thanks for sharing and keep the videos coming. The positivity is refreshing.
Hi Don. What a different time it was indeed. In the early 70's I was Cat logging old growth Redwood for Simpson Timber Co. in northwest California. Logging never leaves my blood.
Hi Don. I was cat logging old growth redwood back in the early 70's in northwest California for Simpson Timber. Logging never leaves the blood. Those were different times, for sure.
Nice deep face, no corrections needed. Perfect back cut. Sharp chain and hot saw kept right up with this gentle leaner. NO sliver pull, and fair enough hinge wood to hold it into the lay. That tree was growing for decades, and our creator knew the day and the men ( Mitch and his filming partner) who enjoy the harvest. Thanks so much for taking time to share this! BTW there's still plenty of wilderness and riparian zones for the remaining old growth. This unit has been planted, and 40-80 yrs from now another cycle will be thinned and eventually harvested again.
Well your an idiot then. A pro tree faller watches the top of the tree when cutting it because thats where the danger is. Shit falling. Duh. That kid will be dead by age 22 for not looking up. Safety is always number 1 and that kid wasnt real safe just for the fact he didnt watch the top of the tree instead he looked down at the cut almost the entire time. Thats not the way to do it. Watch the top of the tree
I think everybody wants to be like Mitch when they grow up. Go Mitch! Go Mitch! Go Mitch. And you know what else- go again Mitch, just keep going so we don't have to watch your stupid shit anymore
For the people out there saying that it's sad cutting Old growth, or second growth or whatever, it's an art!! Not just something that can be done by anyone. And to us, it is something to be very proud of, especially when you walk out alive at the end of the day
Really? So I'm just guessing you're a liberal that would rather wipe your ass with a corn cob, and if you have kids, but being where you're from I'm guessing that you don't, but anyway, they can write on a rock with charcoal 🤣 jack ass
How does one find an in, into this kind of work? Google has failed to yield any results. I’m 22 and disillusioned with college, I love hard work and grew up on a farm. I just want to work outdoors with my hands.
Mitch Morrow is simply amazing. Skilled, level and never picks up that Stihl Saw until he knows that he can take down a 120 foot Douglas Fur. I am one of the tree fallers biggest fans
Im surprised at all the pisitive comments people give on this. He should have been watching the top of that tree when cutting. Quite often things fall from the top. That kid would be dead. Any real pro watches the top of the tree. This kid gave a few short glances at the top and continued watching the cut the whole time. Safety should be number 1 and if you have any kind of a clue as to tree falling you would know this. This kid gonna get clobbered over the head and be done tree falling by the age of 22 if he dont learn to look up more
I wonder, the smaller log laying in the way that was cut to be moved out of the way and the small tree stump, why were these not moved away from the tree being cut down. I've been taught first make sure the area surrounding a tree being cut down is free of any hazard that blocks escape of the Sawyer.
Prison Blues. Made in the inside to be worn in the outside. Call Madsen's saw shop in Centralia WA. And order a pair. You can find there toll free order # with a quick search.
When you have to post videos for attention your probably not that good. Looked like he was cutting on the back yard. Nothing special about cutting that tree. Please don't share any more videos
I don't post them for attention. I posted one for fun. Then figured out I could make money posting videos doing what I love, so I kept at it. I don't post them for validation or attention. I need neither. I know what I am, and that's a very talented timber faller with my share of demons. Even if someone doesn't like me, they can't deny my skill. I worked damn hard at it by showing respect to all of my colleagues, not just the top hands. My Dad told me that even the worst cutter knows at least one thing worth knowing. I asked questions and studied chains & spent countless hours in the saw shop fine tuning my grinder. I'm still learning and always welcome any insight from anyone willing to spend a minute chatting. For you to say I'm not good at what I do is laughable. Not sure why I'm wasting my time with this. You might whip me in a fistfight you might smoke me in a footrace, you might even be able to out spell me, but you will never be able to best me up the hill cutting timber and do as good of a job as me because you lack the one basic ingredient necessary to be in the top tier of timber fallers. It's respect. Hopefully you found this useful. If not.... I tried.
It will never benefit us because those wood sale overseas Why you want deforestation Is it’s so ugly for clearcut all over the place It was also criminal against natural habitat If you want deforestation you can go live in deserts stop go to national parks filled with tall trees
You blokes are so lucky to have such beautiful straight soft trees that make the best lumber , I've been to the US and Canada a dozen times and I wish I could ship them down here to mill, instead I wear myself down cutting Ironbark and Bulloak.
That wasnt good work at all. A true pro watches the top of the tree while cutting it becsuse thats where the danger is. Branches and shit falling. Duh.
Nice work young feller! See he was brought up right as he couldn't brag on hisself, hey Patrick see if you can corner Mitchell one day at the end of shift and interview him a little about how he came into timber fellin, who taught him, and if it runs in the family kinda stuff. That would make a neat video to hear how a young man earned his spot we see here. Safe cuttin men
More than likely people that voted for “Hug a Thug” Pretty Boy California Governor Gavin Newsom who by the way is banning the sale of gasoline powered saws in 2023.
And you calling him boy.....Your either a good friend or lack sense. He could out cut most back when this vid was taken. I'm sure he's hell on wheels today.
You know i have cut the last old growth Australian hardwood before they shut it down and now because of dickhead Greenies more BURNS down than was ever logged.
@@geoffbell166 You dont like to just see amazing forests? You have to rip them down? Do you feel the same way when you go to a park or national forest? Cant you cut down the ones that are grown to be cut? When all of the old growth is gone what will you do? There will never be trees like this again. You dont feel like you are robbing everyone else around you?
That wasnt very pro at all. A true pro would have been looking up to the top of the tree much more than this kid did and less watching the cut especially after beginning back cut. Safety should always be number 1 and i didnt see it with this kids skills
Hundreds of years, thousands of years, done in a second and you are excited about it?! Thre wont be any reason to go outside if there is nothing to see. It will also be too hot to go out. All the big trees will be gone then what will you do? Cut down the twigs that will be left? Let me ask you. Do you go to parks? Like national parks? Do you go camping? Do you really not enjoy nature and have respect for the world around you? Or at least respect for other people and how you are degrading THEIR lives? Without asking. This video is two years old, it’s 2022 now. Do you think you are helping or hurting in the world we now find ourselves in? I’m not a “treehugger” I live in a city and have no experience with nature. I just know “bad” when i see it. It makes me sick to see those huge trees on trucks. You will literally have to cut down newer trees when these are gone so why not leave some? For everyone else who happens to like them.
I enjoy the National Parks where preservation is the point. I also enjoy nature, hunting, fishing and clean water. I’m also a forester and was a logging supervisor. I understand something your missing: you consume or utilize wood products every day, so does society. Houses need framing and sheathing, most people use toilet paper, we write in notebooks, print contracts on paper, brush our teeth (lignin is what makes toothpaste paste). All those things literally grow on trees, trees that need to be cut to support man’s insatiable appetite. We replant those areas and the cycle begins again, this is not an end, most likely trees will be planted in this one’s place. We can and should preserve some areas, but others need to be utilized for higher and better uses, that tree probably grows at a rate of 3% per year, younger trees grow at rates 2-5x that rate, producing more oxygen, sequestering more carbon and fulfilling stand the succession cycle present in Mother Nature. You might dislike this, but as you said you live in a city, lumber is something you buy from a hardware store, there is quite a path that it took to get there and it’s worth taking a little time to explore just what goes into timber production.
120 feet is not much. 150 feet for Douglas is already more or less solid. What are the highest interesting solid arrays encountered? That is, I will explain if there is a place where all or almost all trees of the first tier are no less than the plant in this video?!
I am confident I could NOT have done it better. Outstanding tradesmenship
Great to see there are still a few young ones that know what hard feels like. Nice job handling that saw and dropping that big guy. Be proud of yourself.... Most 20 year olds wouldn't even know how to start a chainsaw non the less operate one. Thanks for sharing and keep the videos coming. The positivity is refreshing.
Nice sequence
Textbook felling Mitch, stay safe young man 🌲🪓🤘🏻
Many thanks! Thanks for watching!
sweet sounding 61
Great job young man..! Be careful and never get overconfident.. dangerous work.. best luck to you..
Awesome! I was a high lead logger for Olsen and Miller in Forks in the early 70’s. My, what a different time that was.
Hi Don. What a different time it was indeed. In the early 70's I was Cat logging old growth Redwood for Simpson Timber Co. in northwest California. Logging never leaves my blood.

Nice one bud👍
Great job young man!🤩🤩🤩🤩
That's what I call west coast x-ray vision...it must be contagious Pat! A lot to be proud of there!
That wasnt good tree falling at all. A pro watches the top of the tree when cutting because thats where the danger is. Shit falling.
no eye protection and he hardly ever looked up while cutting,,this is what you do not want to do
Hell yeah. Don't do what Mitch does
Right!? I cursed myself
Nice knock down Mitch, true pro! About how many board feet in a tree that size Pat?
I'd say somewhere in the neighborhood of about five bushel. I sure appreciate you taking the time to watch I'll try to let Mitch know.
@@StihlSlinger661 your awesome 👌 pard

The was the most perfect face cut I have ever seen
How many face cuts have you seen fool
I wanna be like Mitch when I grow up

You’re a dope for saying that. I mean it respectfully. But come on bro

@@sacramentofoodforest😭😭😭
Trees grow back bub. They’re what you call a renewable resource.
So we’re STIHL gonna keep cutting bub. 😏
@@JS-oy6nn old growth logging isn’t renewable you dope. It literally takes generations to replace these trees
Oh, that obviously makes it ok then. 👍
oh ya no wedges like wtf mate
My dog ate them. 🐕
How does one find an in, into this kind of work? Google has failed to yield any results. I’m 22 and disillusioned with college, I love hard work and grew up on a farm. I just want to work outdoors with my hands.
Just contact Mitch. He seems to know everything
he didnt put the brake on when checking the far side of back cut and thats a fail
Stupid me! 😕
That was smooth as silk!! 👌👍
Thanks. He's an impressive young man for sure!
Mitch Morrow is simply amazing. Skilled, level and never picks up that Stihl Saw until he knows that he can take down a 120 foot Douglas Fur. I am one of the tree fallers biggest fans
Congrats, that's an amazing felling! Thank you for sharing... and of course, more of clips like this one..!
Dont forget to look up young man
That boy is good!
Agreed!
I was cutting old growth bigger than that and better than that when I was 12 years old so I'm not impressed
Who do you think you are? Never heard of you and I know most of the best in the West. Keep keyboard cutting buddy! God Bless!
@@StihlSlinger661 West Coast saw you fool
bucking pants ,,this must be in the states never get away with that in b.c
Nice video! Thanks for sharing and I hope you are doing well today, Patrick.
Thank you. I am doing well.
he comes from a hard working family...in his spare time he cuts redwoods in calif...
Already a top hand. I'm keeping tabs on ya Mitchy
clean work
Im surprised at all the pisitive comments people give on this. He should have been watching the top of that tree when cutting. Quite often things fall from the top. That kid would be dead.

for sure no wedges or eye protection an i dont think he has bucking ppants on
Impressive.
I agree
Wow
We say shit and fuck.not fucking wow
And he’s got a big ole chaw in his lip 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice work!

Nice job young man.👍
Do it Mitch! Saw sounds good.
I wish I could have learned how to do this when I was young.
No doubt. Right there with ya.
I need the info on them pants 👀

Nice work young man, a new generation of fellers, good to see!
I like that cutter pat
And that's why you have no friends. Grow up
Hopefully, you're a better cutter than a person. Bad mouthing a young aspiring cutter on social media says bushels about your character.
When you have to post videos for attention your probably not that good. Looked like he was cutting on the back yard. Nothing special about cutting that tree. Please don't share any more videos

Old growth needs protection. Y’all are against deforestation until it benefits you
It will never benefit us because those wood sale overseas Why you want deforestation Is it’s so ugly for clearcut all over the place It was also criminal against natural habitat If you want deforestation you can go live in deserts stop go to national parks filled with tall trees

Love every Lumber Jack
I know a few that might make you change your mind..... Myself for instance. Just add whiskey and I'm told I'm very unlovable....
You don't love Mitch then
Must be proud.
Awesome job!👍👏💪😎🪓🌲
Great job...I'm pushin 40 and would feel very privileged to cut a tree that nice
That wasnt good work at all. A true pro watches the top of the tree while cutting it becsuse thats where the danger is. Branches and shit falling. Duh.
tree was a monster!
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Good hand young man! You got it!
great job with that saw i love this. got wood?
Your stupid
use wedges and axe ,eye protection
Well done young feller
Nice work on the saw and the camera.
You’re killing the environment, stop it!😂
Nice work
Who in the hell is down voting this video?
More than likely people that voted for “Hug a Thug” Pretty Boy California Governor Gavin Newsom who by the way is banning the sale of gasoline powered saws in 2023.
I am. It's stupid shit
impressive not one wedge
I concur.
ya but you are supposed to use them anyway in case wind comes and blows tree the wrong way and pinch your saw or worse
👍👍❤❤
Yeah he CAN Do it. Becouse his dad owns The company. Good Job anyways boy
His Dad has nothing to do with it. The young man's a natural and I'd put him up against anyone.
And you calling him boy.....Your either a good friend or lack sense. He could out cut most back when this vid was taken. I'm sure he's hell on wheels today.
Puts me to shame
Nice wide face properly commits the tree to it's lay...
Dont put the tip of ur bar in the dirt.. you'll thank me on your next tree
Nice stick.
The sad part is that people are proud of someone cutting down old growth.
Go watch a video of someone hugging a tree jerkoff
You know i have cut the last old growth Australian hardwood before they shut it down and now because of dickhead Greenies more BURNS down than was ever logged.

boo hoo....that burger your flipping at work came from a cow...
What a stud. Rock on

Good job Mitchell
This is making me sick.
Why?
Are you still sick
Definitely not the first time he's done that. I bet his dad has had him on a saw since 5 years old?
I think he was born with a saw in his hand. Go Mitch go Mitch! Fuck mitch
nice work. stay safe

Turning a 20 year old into a murderer of a being hundreds of years old. Shame on these "men"....😭😭😭😭😭
He turned himself into that. A few fellers might have accelerated the process but that young man is a natural born killer! Shame on Mitchy!

It's my day off and I'm watching this crap. Like I don't get to see enough through the week. Nice back cut though kid hung in there like a pro.
