Same in northern Ontario Canada. It’s managed so that the infrastructure they have like the mills and factories never run out of wood from the same tract of land. It’s farming except it’s trees.
After I got upto 300K trading with Mr Gergely korpos.I bought a new House and I'm now able to send my kids to a better school in the states thanks to Mr Gergely Korpos. When someone is straight forward with what he or she is doing people will always speak up for them.
Long term investment is the best now. I invested $6,500 in March last year with Mr Gergely and I top up my trade with $500 every week. Now I'm having over $147,000 on my dashboard. Toping up your trade is really important
As someone who practices forestry in CA, the souths terrain is quite beneficial and cost effective. West coast loggers often have to use more expensive harvest operations like yarders due to steep terrain, the south is essentially flat in comparison. Minimum harvest age in CA is 40-80 years per CAs FPRs. Most west coast timber goes to higher value products too, like plywood and dimensional boards. Forests are my passion but I won’t drone on.
Hey Aron there one the biggest logging crews round by us In South Carolina. Love to see some southern style logging going on keep up the great work man
Yes. Listen to Aaron. Subscribe to the channel. It doesn't cost you anything, and he doesn't post frequently enough to be annoying. Do it. The channel deserves it. Nobody else does this shit as well as these guys.
I'm lost for words you have made my day and have made me spit dr pepper every were with the spider accdent this is a fair size operation go vist the ones in Washington Oregon and Vancouver the equipment they got there is amazing
It’s not that the timber grows faster than the west coast it’s just cheaper to process in all phases , I worked in export timber and pulp and paper industry during the early 1980’s this was the peak of export and in 87 the pulp mills started pulling out and reopen in south east
damn those are some small trees for 25 years of growth.25 years here in nz pine trees are twice the diameter of those.trucks are running at 70ton ( 156000lbs )
Do they do their own regeneration, like planting and soil prep, or outsource that? And since they can harvest in 25 years I`m guessing that the seedling is artificially selected, for faster growth?
NICE Those giant draglines, I warked for B. E. when they had a Operation in Pocatello Idaho as a welder I welded on thouse 240 yard buckets. Caterpillar Purchased B.E. IN 2010 FOR 8.7 BILLON $...!!!!.
This vid was really interesting. Isee lots of big machines at my civil site every day. But I know very little about forestry ops. So yeah, I leaned some stuff. It may be done differently here in Oz, but how different can it be?
That would be a Joro spider, native to SE Asia. Latin name: Nephila clavata. They can grow up to a 4"-5" leg span. The one you showed is a juvenile male, lots of growing to do. You're welcome Eric. Sleep well everyone.
I’m from way up in northern Maine about as far east coast as you can go this is all to familiar equipment I love these logging machines the coolest ones are the giant 800hp chippers that are like a 48 ft long toes behind set up with a grapple loader and they eat trees non stop without much bogging they fill 53 ft pulp trailers in about 15 min it’s awesome to watch the power from these wood working machines
I have so many questions now, manly how heavy a truck load is and how much volume the skidder can take? I'm from Sweden and I really hope I'm not offending anyone by saying that it looks really slow to work like that? Not the operators, those guys were flying! But there's so many people to just get the wood on the truck. And it looks like the truck have to sit around a long time just to get loaded? Ower here we usually have 2 machines that work independently of the trucks. One that cuts according to a digital price list and cuts the logs within 20mm or less. Totally depending on the tree diameter and how it diminishes and so on. And one who brings it out to the truck road and piles it so that the log truck can load it whit his own crane. It usually takes about 15-30 minutes from stop to drive. And the big boys usually have many trucks without a crane and use a separate loader, then it's a matter of 5 minutes to load. The biggest forwarders takes a load of at least 25 tons and the biggest trucks takes loads of about 55 tons. The short wood method is the best, change my mind!😂👌
We have cut to length forwarders and harvesters in the US. A few companies in Oregon and Washington, for example, have had them since the 1980s. I personally have operated many Ponsse buffalo, elephants, ergos, Komatsu 931s, etc. We find cut to length machines work very well for thinning up to moderately steep ground. While they do work for clear cuts and tethering for steep ground, mills generally prefer long logs (10m to 15m or longer) and larger diameters than ctl harvesters can handle over the short, smaller wood produced by the ctl machines. The volume of wood generated with other methods is often much greater than two ctl machines too.
Great video! When you started talking about that mack PI64T I subscribed to the channel. This was the 3rd clip I watched and your curiosity about all this stuff mirrors mine.
I really like all the facts you share about the site and how they are operating. I enjoy learning about about each different industry and the differences.
I had my first experience with those spiders in east Georgia while on a photoshoot. My reaction was similar to Eric’s. Apparently they are a non domestic species that have immigrated to that specific region of Georgia/South Carolina
This is just like one of those logging shows I used to see on Discovery Channel 10 years ago, just with less dramatization. Also (10:19), they should really have a forwarder instead of the tactor pulling the trees on the ground by the grapple. I'm very used to seeing log trucks through my city. Heck, Scania recently launched an electric log truck.
Sooooo gentleman, a Lil trick from the SOUTH. When your walking through the woods , carry a small stick , twigg , limb & kinda swirl it out in front of you as you walk through the woods . That will prevent the accidental walk into a spider web. Lmao !!!!!!
Come see logging in BC, Canada, Aaron... Get in touch with me if you want. Oh, and you could have a look at some of what I've posted. Not as polished as your stuff, but...
ah yes, crashing your drone. Just did that yesterday. Had the drone in sport mode(forget to put it to normal, so no obstacle avoidance), followed someone near a ditch surrounded by reeds. suddenly lost connection. swam for 2 hours trying to find, haven't found it yet ):
Y'all should go out to Northern California on some of the burn recovery sites. That's where they go into the areas that have been burned by forest fires, and they are harvesting all the standing timber that the fires didn't consume. From my understanding of how it works, they submit bids to the forestry service to cut tracks that have damaged trees, but there's enough of the big trees left such as the sugar pines and other varieties of the bigger species that still have value. The sad part is that they only recover a very small percentage of the overall trees still left due to paperwork, the red tape involved with dealing with the different government agencies involved with this. Don't take it as fact, as this is my understanding that most of the time there's such a long time span after the bids have been turned in, and to the time that they are accepted, and released to whomever received awarded tracks that some of the once valuable timber is no longer healthy enough to actually process into usable products. Then there's millions upon millions of acres that simply rot away other's that are pushed over, and either replanted or remain unusable land for many years. Seems our government doesn't move fast enough or doesn't deem it worthwhile to pursue the recovery of as much as possibly could be recovered if things were maybe reorganized to make better use of these resources. I'm sure part of it due to investigation of the actual causes of these forest fires, as many are intentionally set by people for I'm sure many reasons. That said these people do need to be arrested, and taken care of in the proper way so that they can't continue setting huge forest fires that cost people their life, and untold property losses, and the sheer amount of funds required to fight these fires has to be astronomical Just a thought that you might find fits the requirements needed for you to cover this type of operation. As they use mainly feller bunchers, and the other equipment as seen here, but they do have a couple actual fellers employees who cut the biggest trees due to their simply too large for mechanical equipment to handle without being cut, and bucked by the fellers
Finally a video showing a job that real men do! No sleeping on equipment waiting for things to show up or just racking up the hours. These men work from daylight until dark 5 to 6 days a week & don’t shutdown except to fuel & grease
That's cheating down there with the warmth and nice straight rows of pine in the plantations. Up here we have extra stuff us northerners deal with, making ice roads over swamps and bogs, -30°-40° weather, Espar heaters David haley has some great videos. And don't get me started on mountain logging that stuff is amazing.
This company is fairly new, they are owned by an enterprise company. They ran through the counties buying up smaller outfit logging companies essentially buying up competition.
yea cuz most of the southern logging in on what used to be native long leaf pine which was cleared to make way for faster growing trees. its range is now 3% of original. ain't that fun, but long leaf is one of those types of pine that need fire to spread so I get the reluctance to reintroduce given that we don't let wild fires go anymore.
Great video 👍 we own a couple hundred acres of timber in SC but we hire someone else to cut it. Most of it is pulp wood. , so it’s interesting to see how it’s done
I live on a Alabama tree farm the worst part is once it’s clear cut it looks so sad because it was beautiful had it all setup to hunt perfect and now you have to restart and look at clear cut for 5 years till they get big enough
What is the best substitute when you run out of toilet paper?
1. Your sock
2. Your shirt
3. Paper towels
Personally, speaking for a friend, hop In the shower and let my hand do the dirty work. Uhh, his.
always sock. you have 2 chances and threr cheaper then the shirt
Shirt pocket
A glossy magazine cover!!!!!
Someone else’s house
Plantation pine in the Deep South is a row crop like any other row crop, just has a longer maturity cycle.
Same in northern Ontario Canada. It’s managed so that the infrastructure they have like the mills and factories never run out of wood from the same tract of land. It’s farming except it’s trees.
We use thinning patterns to work in the woods here the buncher ain't scared of anything
I love how you went out to look at these big machines. Moving dirt is cool but this is a nice change.
They helped me recover what I lost trying to trade myself
I'm from Los Angeles , I and two other of my friends tried him immediately we testified his performing wonders

You should do logging videos in different places with different machines.
tree huggers do not like logging/trucking until they can't get their Amazon packages.
Awesome to see an operation in the south. You should come see an operation in the Pacific Northwest.. tether machines, yarders, processors etc
@@skidooer583 that show is way over dramatic in my opinion.. he got into a bad car accident if I remember right.
Hey Aron there one the biggest logging crews round by us In South Carolina. Love to see some southern style logging going on keep up the great work man
Loved this! Would definitely love to see more machinery outside of moving dirt.
Yes. Listen to Aaron. Subscribe to the channel. It doesn't cost you anything, and he doesn't post frequently enough to be annoying. Do it. The channel deserves it. Nobody else does this shit as well as these guys.
Thank you Les!!!
Absolutely love the Witt/Jumper combo. And the editing on this one was especially excellent!
I'm lost for words you have made my day and have made me spit dr pepper every were with the spider accdent this is a fair size operation go vist the ones in Washington Oregon and Vancouver the equipment they got there is amazing
Michael Scott: DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW PAPER IS MADE??
13:50 In the UA-cam chapters you misspelled “skidder” as “skitter”
Painting your plant green would probably qualify as environmentally friendly in England
It’s not that the timber grows faster than the west coast it’s just cheaper to process in all phases , I worked in export timber and pulp and paper industry during the early 1980’s this was the peak of export and in 87 the pulp mills started pulling out and reopen in south east

As my dad says, “ you can do anything with enough wood”. And he is 100% correct.
you should go see the pulp plant. they have some really big machines and cool ways to unload the trucks
They’re weird about cameras :(
@@AaronWitt that sucks
Do they do their own regeneration, like planting and soil prep, or outsource that? And since they can harvest in 25 years I`m guessing that the seedling is artificially selected, for faster growth?
Outsourced to another contractor. And yes all seedlings are engineered to grow as fast as possible
NICE Those giant draglines, I warked for B.
E. when they had a Operation in Pocatello Idaho as a welder I welded on thouse 240 yard buckets. Caterpillar Purchased B.E. IN 2010 FOR 8.7 BILLON $...!!!!.
o lie when you said "THE CLAW!" i was exoecting that scene editd in from toy story 😂😂
Next up East coast Hard wood 🪵
This vid was really interesting. Isee lots of big machines at my civil site every day. But I know very little about forestry ops. So yeah, I leaned some stuff. It may be done differently here in Oz, but how different can it be?
I've been waiting for this type of content for years.
I love trees but I also love to cut trees
Come to the west coast and watch us log.
We hope to one day soon
We do it totally different on the west coast but I love seeing how it’s done other places.
That would be a Joro spider, native to SE Asia. Latin name: Nephila clavata. They can grow up to a 4"-5" leg span. The one you showed is a juvenile male, lots of growing to do. You're welcome Eric.
Sleep well everyone.
Bois I'm halfway through but the banter in this one is great have to say. And very cool meeting someone who knew you guys. Keep it up!
I’m from way up in northern Maine about as far east coast as you can go this is all to familiar equipment I love these logging machines the coolest ones are the giant 800hp chippers that are like a 48 ft long toes behind set up with a grapple loader and they eat trees non stop without much bogging they fill 53 ft pulp trailers in about 15 min it’s awesome to watch the power from these wood working machines
This is the industry I’m in you should come out and see how we run I have a big chipper we chip the wood with too
We chip trash and pine pulp
That is what we call in Alabama a banana spider . They get huge
I have so many questions now, manly how heavy a truck load is and how much volume the skidder can take?
I'm from Sweden and I really hope I'm not offending anyone by saying that it looks really slow to work like that? Not the operators, those guys were flying!

West coast log trucks, other than California, are legal at 47 ish tons gross weight. Many of them net around 28 to 35 tons of logs

🙋🏼♂️ SUBJECT : Survey ,how grade is kept in cuts or fills by the Grade Checker 🏴☠️
Receipts contain plastic? Now I'm pissed
In Canada the currency in bills is 100% polymer based plastic.
I really like all the facts you share about the site and how they are operating. I enjoy learning about about each different industry and the differences.
Glad you enjoy thank you for watching
I love logging, hopefully you will show off more logging things, maybe show off how different areas log their area. Great Video 😎
we hope to soon!
I had my first experience with those spiders in east Georgia while on a photoshoot. My reaction was similar to Eric’s. Apparently they are a non domestic species that have immigrated to that specific region of Georgia/South Carolina
I learn something new in every video you make it makes the 8 year old kid in me happy
Happy to hear you’re enjoying them!!

8:00 that’s my dadddddd!!!!!!
Would be awesome to see a comparison with a harvester/forwarder operation! Great video 😄
Could I film a video of my line of work and email it to u? Down South logging at its best. I'm in Arkansas trees around here are pretty nice
Finally a video showing a job that real men do! No sleeping on equipment waiting for things to show up or just racking up the hours. These men work from daylight until dark 5 to 6 days a week & don’t shutdown except to fuel & grease
They’re hardcore man
Are the feller bunchers purpose built or is it just a regular tractor with a specific head?
Purpose built
6:19 you must tame a wild feller buncher in order for it to get the sticks attention
Disks do not rotate in MPH. They rotate in RPMs. How fast in MPH does the crankshaft spin in you car at idle?
Cool to think in a few short weeks this will be replanted for the next generation of paper
I would like to see yall go take a look and forestry excavators like this have special built track hoe bulldozers and much more.
Come up to bc and check out our yarding operations! We make these guys look like kindergarteners. Even our pulp wood is bigger 😅
That’s not the point there’re not bragging
And some tigercat equipment they are one of thee best in the logging game. All we due alot of forestry mulching come check us out in southeast NC
Odd question but what song was that in the 1st part obviously probably a non copyrighted sound but I honestly liked it
The feller buncher is the coolest machine there in my book!! I used watch swamp loggers!!
Another great video! Eric was totally tea bagged by a spider! 😂
"Length is really important."
Yes, every man knows that. 🤐😁😇🤟
Id love for you to see a logging operation in bc!
There's gotta be different ways to make toilet paper tho...I use dirty shirts all time
i love logging also and the smell of fresh cut logs also third
Here we see a feller buncher in its natural habitat
I bet it smells wonderful there. Fresh cut timber and earth in the air. Awesome
and up north they burn hard wood so People don’t have to spend four dollars a gallon for oil this winter
Dropped a like just for the intro montage… epic
I’m really liking that camo button up shirt where can I get one of those?
Bucees hahaha
there are billions of trees on this planet why in the sweet fuck are we worring about cutting the down
You should check out how we do it in europe, its such a big difference.
So the paper mill cares how long the logs are? I thought this was about paper?
I keep waiting for jumper to say that's what she said 🤣
That's cheating down there with the warmth and nice straight rows of pine in the plantations.

Enjoy your videos
Who's the Lucky One to paint the Blue?
Look. Sounds and smells like life in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
Log trailers are purpose built to haul logs. Imagine that lol
You need to see some British Colombia logging
Great video guys
You should see about checking out the Irving operation up in maine. I’ve heard it’s pretty impressive
The guy loading lumber didn't seem that smooth, probably costs the most in maintenance and town time.
I’d love to see more Types of videos maybe a few farming vids just a thought keep up the great work man🤙🤙
A log vlog. Love it!
Coming from a camera operator, that’s some very amateur work for such a promising endeavour.
Great video 👍 we own a couple hundred acres of timber in SC but we hire someone else to cut it. Most of it is pulp wood. , so it’s interesting to see how it’s done
