All our heavy equipment hauling firewood logs out of the woods. Big maple logs!

In this video we go back into the woods to haul out maple logs I cut a few days before. Some of these logs are massive! Check it out and see how we get them back to the woodyard. #firewood #uppermichigan #ironmule

Its gota be suds time, followed by dinner time. Your vid was a good watch. your fortunate to have heavy equipment like that to harvest firewood. I am sure you like firewoodin w/your old man. I remember firewoodin w/my old man on my Grandfathers century farm.

[@Lifeinthe906]

Thanks Dan. I enjoy working with dad in the woods. He's a great firewood partner.

[@patrickpryal9344]

Hey Mike, whoever was in the Mule needs to be careful loading logs that are not in balance. At 10:45 mark he picked up a single log way out of balance and loaded it with the long end facing right at the cab. If that log were to slip out of the clam it's comin' right back at the operator. Always spin those out of balance logs so that the heavy end is facing away from the controls. Just my 2 cents. Good work and BE CAREFUL out there. Worked in the woods for 30 years and had plenty of close calls but survived it ! LOL

Mike few weeks back I was in good man Wis. Cutting Maple with my son-in-law and his buddy . When he was pounding on a plastic wedge about the 3 swing it came back and hit him square in the Jewel's. Never saw that with a steel one.

[@Lifeinthe906]

@johnbaenen5386 Yikes that sounds terrible 😳

[@MarkSt59]

👍The effort to supply a few happy campers with firewood. Mike the sauna at camp doesn't care if the wood a little past it's prime. I have burned moss covered oak it just has a bit of sizzle😀 but still creates heat. What county due you have your bundles for sale?

[@Lifeinthe906]

Yep it all burns ! We are in Marquette Co.

Hey Eddy

Mike , your dad need more diesel turn fluid up pressure in hydraulic. Logger equipments operator put the fuel pedal to the floor. Easy on the equipments for sure Mike . Should lift get closer to the machine Mike . If it don’t lift , just need bigger tons cycle on the hydraulic to lift weight . Mike that now heavy logs for logging equipments I been around with own two back tires 🛞 on the ground and front point at the sun lifting large hardwood timber on the carry rack . Went get up 6’ to 15’ across on logs in hardwood then you feel the power in logging equipments with 8 tires 🛞 and load down with big ring 💍 chains ⛓ or steel track over all the tires . One off our CAT logging equipments run double 6’ foot = 12’ in tires 🛞 and chains or steel track Mike . 38 “ Mike sorry that baby wood 🪵 buddy . HAPPY EASTER All the BEST to everyone in the 906 .
