    I logged up near Meziaden which is near Stewart turn right at the junction you head up to dease lake and the Alaskan highway. I logged there and lived at camp Meziaden for 6 years and made whops of money to take back to Ontario and buy my beatiful log home just east of Rossport on the north shore of Lake Superior. Im still here 50 years later,kids all grown up and my wife and I enjoy inland fishing for Pickerel and blueberry picking and awesome sunsets...Thank you for the great video and the memories cheers from Ontario.

    As a northern British Columbian who lives in a small forestry town, I understand the importance of the forest industry. People have to make a living. But at the same time I sure hope that we're managing our forests such that we don't cut more than a 1,000th of 1,000 year old trees each year. I'm not sure that's the case. We can't get too greedy. It's a renewable resource but only if we manage it wisely.

    • @TomSmith-io9uk

      I totally agree. I'm a conservative BUT don't cut old-growth trees, please. I live in a cedar forest and in my county 100 years ago they would cut 1 tree that would take one logging truck to carry. We have rotten stumps on our property that are 6 or maybe 6.5 feet wide from logging old growth. These trees are nearly gone in America and we should preserve what we have left. We can log 50 year old trees and be just fine re-planting.

      Not many people actually work in the outdoors anymore as compared to offices or road warriors. Their is something uniquely satisfying about working outdoors, being dirty and taking a hot shower after work. I grew up on Lake George and logging was a proffessional up there. Think International paper and their paper mills in Ticonderoga. I grew up working for a dock builder and did it my self all the way through college. They were all crib docks made of logs and filled with stone. If a new one we built them on the ice I. The winter and chainsawed the ice dropping them in. If not, built them on the water.
      Still have two chain saws out of three!
      Trees and wood construction are more sustainable and less polluting to the environment. When you think metal studs, think acid rain which started to kill the Great Lakes, finger lakes and poison the Adirondack lakes.

I had a B Lic. troller caught salmon, ling cod, red snapper and rock cod and occasionaly in the '70s would haul a few beached logs off the rocks ... watching this production was very emotional for me, Im 74 now and won't be doing anymore logging thats for sure.

    I started in the woods at 9 yrs old for a life-long cutter, Frank K. Up Deadwood Cr. western Oregon and broke in as his marker. A log tape, markin axe, shirt,loggin cutoffs, suspenders, socks, boots, and hard hat. The dress code of the job for the day. I jumped in his truck at 4am. Made it to the show by daybreak. First tree i ever marked was 11 foot at the butt, and old Frank had to springboard the tree to make the undercut. Five fuel-ups and 4hrs later ,tree still standing Frank pulled his saw out shut it off and said "Lets eat lunch" I asked him, "What about the tree" He just said, " Keep your eyes on the top. It'll be coming down as soon as the wind shifts." Well 20 minutes passed before I heard the first snap of wood, 5 minutes later the second. And then all hell broke loose. It sounded like a freight train twenty feet from us going by. When that tree hit the ground i bounced a good half a foot in the air. From that day on i was hooked on cutting timber. I'm 72 now and have left cutting trees to the younger bucks. Have to say i enjoyed the video.

Now it needs to be removed to thin out the Forrest and let new light in areas that haven't seen the sun for hundreds of years. This will start a whole new echo system in this area now.. Pretty cool to see what happens in the Forrest.

    Lumber is the other product that other countries want ! Even those they have there own supply of lumber but rather use the lumber from say another country remember it takes say 25 to 50 years to regrow the supply of lumber you cut down in your own country ! True the cut lumber can be sold for a profit But remember that you can’t regrow the old growth lumber that you sold to say China or Europe can’t be replaced in a few years ! Use it at home ! Not miles or days away !

      This is no accident. The new world order is real and they have a real evil agenda against the former creative, inventive western first world. In a KJV revelations 2:9 and 3:9 the christ himself names our common enemy. Their agenda has successfully deindustrialized the aging, dying western, first world and gave all of our industry and technology to the third world making us artificially dependant upon the third world for our necessities while flooding our former aging, dying homelands and cities with third world aliens of military age to wreak havoc upon our cities and aging populations. Read and learn before it is too late. The new world order is real and their evil agenda very real and no accident.

      not really, the space 1 old growth tree takes up will support up to 10 new trees, which with the rapid growth of new trees actually cleans the pollution better than the old growth tree would.
      The added info that nearly half of BC is parkland so no logging and the parks are old growth also makes the cutting less offensive.
      The logging industry has been drastically reduced in the last 30 years, no more clear cutting of thousands of acres and where they do get clear cutting permits they also have reforestation requirements as a part of it. They have to plant as many trees as they cut when clear cutting.
      While old growth lumber is extremely valuable it is also very hard to get cut, not many mills can handle the logs so it isn't as common to cut old growth as it used to be.

    And to think... Up until about the early/mid Middle Ages (500A.D. - 1000A.D.) most of the upper Northern hemisphere was nothing but unbroken forest pretty much!
    the Romans and Vikings managed to change most of that apparently(?)... With their building of homes, carts and ships, as well as the need for fuel too. Unbroken forests and woodlands until the planting of crops and grass for modern agriculture...
