me and my dad cut a little timber in the winter and farm in the summer. i drive the logskidder we like frozen ground but a woods raely freezs up remember a skidder will go where nothen else will. on soft ground a dozer will end up maken a bigger mess.we use a dozer on hilly ground or thick woods and to grade skid trails. we only select cut and have gone back to many places 3-4 times in the last 30-40 years. we allways work within 20 miles of home where or mill is and most people know us and there always fairly happy when were done.wetend to use a main skid trail threw the middle and branch off from it. sometimes well run just the cabble a ways to avoid real soft spots. ive seen where hourses have ben used and most times they do more damage than we do. they make maney more trips and every log they drag they have to be able to back right up to it so thats a lot more roads and downed saplings. they also will have logs drug everywhere cause they cant bunch them up.we always ask what the owner wants and tell them how mutch money there getten for the marked trees, about how long it will take. pay at least half up front and agree on the rest of payment. usealy leave tops were the lay and cut them down and pull the ones down that are tangeled. weve cut for some realy fussy people and so far no real problems. if there are ruts that need graded we do that in dry weather cause mud dond grade the best. in 5 years or so youed be surprised how the woods fills with saplings. best advice id give is ask for refresences and get at least 3 bids and talk about every thing you want and expect.
