Mr. Schlafer is mistaken. Coastal Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens) do not grow in Japan, and they are not native to Japan. Metasequoia, which is native to China, does grow in Japan (and Korea). Besides coastal California and Southern Oregon, plantations of Coastal Redwoods can be found in New Zealand, Australia and the UK.
I had my doubts at first, but this new direction you've embarked on has already proved to be a brilliant move. These videos are so full of new insights and useful information. I'm enjoying taking this voyage of discovery along with you. Your videography has also become top notch.
There is a small quantity of plantation redwood in New Zealand. Beautiful trees, beautiful timber.
The mist with light through them redwoods is ethereal man. Amazing
Well said, sir! One of the marks of a real man who is good at his job, is that he readily admits himself to be on a continual learning curve, shunning resting on egotistical laurels. May your business prosper in whatever direction you decide to take it.
That’s the first time I have seen Gordy without a hat! He has a lead foot! 😂 🚙💨💨
Antone is a master! Amazing work! The scenery is beautiful!
I look forward to the next video.
You know a lot more than most, but nothing wrong with staying humble and always learning. Thanks for bringing us along.
This is why we have a huge drought.. too many trees sucking up the water 🌊😄
This was a very interesting video. I learned a bunch about redwoods in 28 minutes of video here. Thanks, and please keep em coming!
Redwood grows really well in the UK, not native, but seem to love it here. Worked in a place that had numerous trees planted in 1856, they are big specimens now. Huge butt, but fins quick at height. I think they are hard to germinate here.
This is a first time comment as I actually have something to contribute but first since I'm here for the first time:
I'm a weekend warrior who does tree cutting and arborist-like kind of work on my own land. I love this channel and it has made me a thousand times more competent doing my own work; I'm sub'd and always reviewing your, edu climber's, and buck'n's channels. The notch cut video with Jed is one of the best videos there is.
The one thing that I've learned about cutting down redwoods is that the bark can be very thick. It can be thicker on one side (a lot thicker) than the other and this can throw off gauging cut depth. I nearly learned the hard way that it's a good idea to shave the bark where the cuts and any wedging will take place just to make sure that you know where the wood is. Bark doesn't hold anything!
I hope you keep do'n what you are doing.
OMG I LOVE THIS STUFF. JAKE, you have created the perfect opportunity for expanding your horizons. Keep going and it won't be long before you will be in even greater demand. SLOW the camera down when panning.
You're a lucky dude to be felling with those two fellas my friend.
like buckin says..."your on a journey" and youve been gracious enough to bring us along for the ride.
thank you.
just keep being you and being open honest. we appreciate that more than you know. having real people share their lives with us is way more interesting than some flashy, highly produced.....garbage. trying to be nice.
it takes more of a man to admit what he doesnt know than what he does know.
Awesome video. Seeing all the difference in residential and loggers. Anyway, it's dangerous, appreciate watching their ability and expertise. Stay safe! 👍👍
Be careful Jacob, logging gets into your blood. I got to experience the trees out their in the late 90s. Coming from logging on the east coast the sheer size of the redwoods is unbelievable. Your video brought back fond memories, hope to get back there someday. Over 31 years now since I started logging and climbing, I am still learning new things, that is one of the great things about working in the woods. Take care and always look up.
Don’t forget New Zealand, we have a redwood forest in Rotorua, central north island.
I appreciate the humility expressed at the end of the video, which has the potential to save your neck someday. The dynamics in each tree that is scheduled to be fell can vary greatly one from to the other. Understanding those dynamics can determine reasonable success with each assessment. Or contrast the catastrophic disasters without understanding those dynamics. Hence: all the billions of board feet of amazing lumber heading to the market or the horrible side of the lost loved one that never understood those dynamics. Understanding those dynamics is crucial, with very little room for pride, until those many years are put into learning those dynamics if those years are ever put in. Stay humble and learn, seeing there is much to learn! As I am sure the seasoned pro knows all too well when he stands there bewildered and learning once again after the random strange occurring, asking himself - what caused that to happen?
Keep it coming Jacob, lovin' the content 👍🏼🪓❤️🇬🇧
Thank you
My pleasure 🙏🏻
I reciently bought a tiny forest and can't believe how trees grow.. they are definitely like weeds... Any space each year new ones pop up everywhere... Oaks, cherry, chestnut and pine.. everywhere 😂
hehe hows the forest doing?
There is a decent amount of Redwood grown in New Zealand as well. They were brought here from California in the 1860s
Awesome great video. Ignorant is one of my favorite words Jacob. It means your teachable. Stupid is forever and often painful. I really appreciate how you teach. I'm an old man now and you are making me less Ignorant. Thank you.
Jake what is so refreshing is your open mindedness your humble and your learning and prepared to learn and soak up what everyone has to teach you that's the best thing you can do. You take Anton on a tree job that your good at he would be the rookie but your happy to learn what he knows. It's awesome. You never stop learning if you do you need to stop cos you've given up. Never lose that humbleness you have it makes you a good person. God bless
Im from New Zealand and we have coastal redwoods over here too.
Yes, you do, and they are thriving from what I hear. They are an introduced species, however.
I agree with you. The more I learn it feels like, the less I know. On of my teachers said the biggest barrier to learning, is to think you already know everything.
I joined the logging world about two years ago on my own for my self. If not for my fren Logger Jay I wouldn’t be where I am today. This stuff is extremely hard work just running a saw not including all of the work that goes into maintaining my equipment add an ole TimberJack 225d to the mix makes my world a daylight till dark job 7 days a week. I moved 6 triaxle loads last week best one I’ve had yet! My go to every day saw is an 460 ported polished muffler mod and tune. Love the content and am fighting the same curve
Being from the Santa Cruz mountains and having grown up in the Redwoods I can attest to what Anton said, I knock down hundreds of suckers every weekend with a brush cutter, they are unstoppable haha. I definitely appreciated his knowledge of Redwoods, it's always fun talking to old loggers, they know more about the forest then anyone.
More of this... cheers from Luxembourg 🇱🇺 Europe
We have some big Redwoods here in New Zealand in small plantations. Grows very well here.
Absolutely amazing. Thanks!
The eucalyptus trees alongside the highway in the beginning of your video are a mile from my house in Arcata CA…really cool to see you roll through my stomping grounds! Great video!
Thanks Jake for the trip down to my part of the world and for all of the great information and meeting some great loggers.
Never stop learning Jake! Love your videos and your new journey.
Such a different type of wood excellent information you gave the world thank you!
Thanks for sharing your time and work. Amazing how fast the redwoods grow.
We have all been there.....slept through an alarm......doesn't mean you won't be mercilessly harassed for it!(You two at the old folks home....rocking away on the front porch....Gordy says...remember that time you were an hour and a half late picking me up?!! Good times.) You said it......if you think you know everything......your stop learning! Have fun....learning doesn't hurt!
I learned so much from this. Really interesting hearing about the management of the forest. Thanks for sharing Jake!
Absolutely fascinating !! Thanks for making and sharing this video.
Your passion inspires passion in people like me. This was inspirational. Thank you for taking the time and effort to create these amazing educational videos.
Thanks for being humble!
I love the drone shots over the river while driving, beautifully done!
Working your own backyard, learning the lay of the land, what tools to use and how to accomplish success is hard enough. Then, you step away from your comfort zone, and then the world becomes, so much bigger and vast. Your new perspective is taken from those, who work those individual areas of trees. Species of trees, different elements and tools, equipment you thought might be archaic or so different, from the ways, your used to. With new experiences, new people and how each challenge is achieved, brings you closer to a fullness you'd never get in your comfort zone, in your own backyard. Remember, your only as big as you think you are, but your a giant, when others have offered to pass onto you what they have learned. That's, Knowledge! Keep swinging your axe and sharpening your blade. You sir, are on the right path.
Very educational Thank you for letting us come along. Beautiful part of California.
There is a forest here in New Zealand of California redwood planted early 1900s with the intent of logging. Ended up being a tourist attraction
Love the video. Saw it dropped while I was working and couldn’t wait to get home. Thanks for it. Continue the work.
This was great. Beautiful country. With some of the things that have gone on in California as of late had me wondering why people would live there. This video opened my eyes. What a beautiful state. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah it’s amazing there. I’d be tempted to move to Northern California but moving from Washington which is 0% state income to California which is 13% plus the cost of living being so much higher there it just doesn’t make sense to move there. Also we homeschool our kids and the laws aren’t as friendly for that down their either. The weather and the views and the trees are incredible though
Northern CA is gorgeous. Lived here my whole life and always reminds me how beautiful it is here.
Beautiful state, horribly mismanaged by a government that's intentionally subjugating the people below wildlife.
@@deplorablepatriot8605 I would agree 100%
great video Jacob as usual. really cool watching others falling trees, etc & some amazing scenery
Beautiful place...
Glad to see you back on UA-cam
This was an awesome video! Thanks so much for sharing your incredible trip. I feel you are doing it right by working with so many different people. The experience you gain will be invaluable. Enjoy and stay safe.
love the videos with you and Gordy hope to see more soon!
Great video man! It's cool to see your channel coming back to life! Try to get footage of yourself cutting trees.
Wow!! What an awesome video!!! I love to see the logging parts!! Thank you for your full spectrum of tree cutting!! 🤗🤗👍🏻👍🏻
This is so fascinating! I love seeing you work with all these different people in different places. I learn so much from these videos, and I really appreciate your humility. It really seems like most, if not all, people in the tree industry (arborists, loggers, etc.) are humbled, wise, and easy-going. I'm sure there are outliers to this description, but the nature of hard, life-threatening, mentally/physically staining work you all do has to influence the type of person you become.
With every one of these tree videos I see, I wish more and more that I was in that industry, and not behind a keyboard all day.
Good stuff Jacob, glad you got a taste of the logging world! That is the first time I've heard an arborist from UA-cam explain what a different world it is. I grew up in the same area where Gordy is from so Logging runs in our veins there on the Oregon coast 😜 Hope to see more of this soon🤘
Love the humility Guilty. Always enjoy your video's. Constantly learning from them. Keep it up thanks from Aussie land
Gordy: Silvey Grinder, don't leave home without it
Watching this video does something to you. It makes you appreciate the wonders of nature. I live in Southern California and I have only been to the redwoods once in my lifetime. We came to California from Colorado when I was 11 years old I am now 81. I think I was about 14 when I went to the redwoods with my parents. Thanks for sharing this video it was a great eye opener.
Great video. Anton is a super knowledgeable guy, your always learning.
Great coverage educational for those that have no idea about western trees including myself ,I live in the northeast.
Found this video very informative and the scenery shots on the drive were great.
Hopefully you get to do more of these videos this is my favorite video yet
Amazing video. I remember reading about the giant redwoods of California as a kid, but never actually learned they were not fictional until much later, and I am still in awe when I see them.
it is amazing the complexity of all the different aspects to cutting down trees. unique techniques
and how too based upon all the variables involved. great video and showing the skilled individuals
that you have worked with, and along side of Jake you are sharing a hidden side, that most people
will not have the opportunity to experience!
Thanks for another interesting video, Jacob. Bit of trivia - Longitude lines run north and south and are all equal length (long, as in longitude). Longitude lines are also called meridians and are referenced to the Greenwich Meridian, or Prime Meridian. Latitude lines run east and west, parallel to the equator, and are shorter closer to the north and south poles. Antone was saying Japan is the same latitude as northern California.
Latitude lines are parallel to one another, Longitude lines all join at the poles and so are not parallel to one another.
Correct.... and metasequoia are native to a remote valley in China, not Japan, and weren't discovered until the 1930's. Aka dawn redwood, they, along with bald cypress, are the only deciduous conifers.
That was friggin cool. nice work Jake. good to see Gordy again.
That's the best knowledgeable video yet. Keep them coming
It's a good day...I learned something, about Redwoods. Thank you for sharing.
Loved this video. I'm past the age and status that I get to do any bucking anymore but I love the saws and the smell and the joy of cutting and splitting wood. I'm in NC so red oak is plentiful and great firewood.
Keeping learning Jake and thanks for sharing. If your pans of the Pacific in Mendocino were a little slower I would enjoy it more. All the rest is awesome stuff.
Another excellent vid Brother! Keep up the great work...your channel is so informative and hosts a great number of vids that are a pleasure to watch 👍
Great video! Besides the interesting content, your efforts with creative camera angles, drone shots, the 1st class editing, etc. really add up. 👍👍
Totally a blast…..lucky for you to get the chance !
You don’t know what you don’t know until after you learn.
Thanks sharing!
Thank you for this Video! And thank you for telling about your thoughts at the End of the Video! I think what you did realized there could be a great start of Personal Development! And look, the base where you start with that Development couldn‘t be better! Keep beeing your self an Go on! Thx for everything!
In college I did a report on logging and have a lot of those same photos you showed in that restaurant. Those stumps are awesome in size and then you are even more amazed that they were cut down by hand!
But on your adventures... The fact that you always strive to learn something new, techniques are different from region to region, the same species of tree grows differently from one area to the next... And so forth, shows that you have a drive to learn and that keeps you growing in your field. Like you stated before, when you stay in one area you can easily feel like the "big fish" and for some they might be content with that. Your separation from Eastside must have felt like you had not path forward, but we all know watching these videos that you were made for this!!! Keep doing what you're doing! Stay safe! See you in the next video...
Great content! Stay humble, always learning
Wow...stunning scenery..and you guys work in it..
That was a great video! One of your best IMO.
Would love to see you come down to the south west of Western Australia. Jarrah, Karri, Marri and Tingle are all amazing and distinct trees, definitely worth checking out.
My great friend and well-known consulting arborist, Seattle based Scott Baker, has been to the Karri forests... His son attended a college in WA some years ago.
Hey Jake, one of the best woodworking schools in the country in the next town over in Fort Bragg. 440 Alger st., worth a look.
Thx for your videos.
Great video. There was a lot of information in this video that I enjoyed learning.
When my mom passed, my dad wanted to travel to CA to visit his Sister in Grass Valley. When we arrived, my Aunt took us over to Mendocino right by where your coast pix were showing! We overnighted at a resort and went back the next day! Each day we made our way through Redwoods-Amazing!
Wow! One of my favorite videos. My father-in-law was a logger out there in the early 1900's. Now I know what he was talking about.
Interesting trip, as usual, thank you for sharing.
There's a saying in industrial work. "The more you know, the more you know you don't know".
I thought I came up with it 40 odd years ago, but I've heard it several times since. You've progressed to where your becoming aware of just how big it all is. Enjoy the new experiences, you're doing a great job covering it for us watchers.
Thanks and stay safe out there!
Dude.. this video is excellent.. Anton is a nice guy .. really interesting 👍👍
Loved this video. Really enjoyable.
Nice scenery. Never been able to get out that way yet, always wanted too. Thanks.
I really liked this video! A lot of information about redwoods.
@27.20 min mark. This is true in many different things in life... and many people have different perspectives.
Your Not Ignorant, your a Big man for understanding and admitting it. Humble.
you have a great channel. Love it.
Dude I’m loving this can’t wait for more! I’d love to see you out on the east coast too! Be neat to compare
Awesome video 👍!!!! Totally would love to see more!!!!!!
Love your videos.
So much to learn...very interesting
Beautiful scenery! Love the old photos of loggers. Wow those trees are a little bigger then you are use to! lol
Absolutely fantastic video Jacob beautiful scenery. I wish I was there getting amongst it . To bad we don’t have redwood forests here in Australia. Although there is a small grove in Stanley forest in Victoria just out of Beechworth possibly 10 acres or redwoods about 70 year old trees . They certainly are majestic trees . Keep up the good work buddy once again beautiful footage .👍🏻🇦🇺🌲
I just love this inside knowledge of redwoods and the Japanese breed. I think the cypress tree and sequoia had a cross species that was very similar to redwood but went extinct.
Getting some redwood action is good. Would love to have a load of that lumber here in ole MO!
This was very interesting, something to learn. Very much like watching.
It’s hard to beat a man at his own game just see how much difference there is in each place it’s great to learn from guys that are at top of their game good guys make it look easy
Awesome stuff. Reminds me of laying out timber sale units back in the day. Driving a computer these days. Have to work in the woods for fun now.
To remain humble is the key, regardless of your experience. Keep that humility and pass it on.
This one is soo good so much info 👌👌👌👌
