There are alot of things one must do to be safe when out cutting for firewood. One of the first things to do is to evaluate the area you will be cutting in.
This is a picture of CP showing our son a BIG HAZZARD someone left, that he spotted when looking around the property we are working on. Here is a picture of what the guys are looking at ........Can you see the hazzard? It's really easy to miss! Exactly why it is such a hazzard and could easily kill someone just wandering around not paying attention. -------------------- Education is the key to the future,

Here is a picture of Dan flattening off the stump. Good thing this tree was taken down, the termites had the bottom center rotted out so it would have come down on it's own in a few years with that mean lean and weight.
We prepped for falling this tree for several days, taking down the trees close that would hang it up. Good thing too! Here is a picture of where it fell. Right on top of a stump of one we cut. Can even see how close it was to another stump. Hit the stump so hard it drove it sideways and into the ground folding the bark. A branch of the tree right next to the stump drove in about 3 feet. Wow!! This is a picture with just a few of the chunks. We relocated the truck and these were rolled downhill to load..... Was enough just getting them into the truck! Took no time to load! Man was the truck loaded down with her nose in the air when we finished. Stay safe out there everyone! -------------------- Education is the key to the future,
