Walk Through During a Northern Maine Timber Harvest

Back in winter 2020 I had a timber harvest done on part of one of my woodlots. The neighbor was having their land cut and this area could be easily reached from their property, so it was a great opportunity to have some of my wood cut while they were there. This area is about half a mile from the main road, so it would be uneconomical to harvest it without putting in a road and wood yard back there otherwise. I'm not a big fan of harvesting with large equipment and the impacts to the ground and forest it has. In this case, it was the only feasible option and i think it worked out quite well. The forester and logger were very responsive to my concerns, I laid out clear expectations and they followed them. I hope to be back in the area doing more forestry work in the coming years, hopefully with my own equipment.
