Wow, that's a mahoooosive tree!
Dublin was founded about the same time that tree began life, 841 the vikings rolled up the the shores of Ireland and decided to yolo it :)
I’m assuming that they transport the big logs by chopper. Sure would like to see that operation, sometime.
for your first aid kit (from the top of my head) :
- a survival thermal blanket
- strong plastic bags (to carry bits of people back to the ER)
- a tourniquet (for the worst case scenario) but probably unnecessary
- sticky tape like you said (easy to tear with your teeth for when you have only one arm free)
- a universal splint
- tweezers for splinters or ticks
- a pair of rescue scissors that can cut through your type of clothing one handed
and finally a beer but that might be against company policy
All good tips thank you 🤙
Impressive
Huge one!
I think you should put orange hockey tape in your first aid kit. 😜
Nice Heli Ride TY
Years ago a friend and I were salvaging cedar out of the Astoria, OR watershed that was logged heavily during WW2. On a break we went up the road a ways to look at a cedar my friend had seen that was laying down. We had to bush whack a bit to get to it but it was as tall as us, around 6' or so, and that didn't include what was settled into the ground. I took out my pocket knife with a 3" blade and stuck it in it and it didn't make it all the way in until it hit solid wood. But that wasn't all because sitting on top of it with the root system wrapping around it was at least a 5' stump....so how long ago do you think the one on the ground started to grow?
Ah, Professor Butler, I see you are bespectacled now...
I wonder where such giant trees grow
I assume like any gig there are some companies you prefer to contract for over others. I’m not asking you to out the worst one, but is there one or two in particular that you feel really do good work and take good care of the fallers?
Get 3m medipore-H tape it's sectioned no cutting and very sticky comes in a large roll but it's perforated into 2x2 pcs.....Bacitriacin Zinc ointment 10x better than neovasoline....and get some ampules of saline bout 4 and a little Hibiclens liquid soap..I use this stuff everyday Hibiclens is surgical soap and wound wash
The balsam woulda been a good bore cut candidate eh, or did the sweep and your fast, sharp saw make you think you could keep up with it. Here on the east coast guys bore nearly everything, which seems kinda silly to me, but they have their reasons. Veneer logging is a different animal, but that aside chase cutting seems perfectly natural, efficient, and safe.
I think a tourniquet would be a good idea. I hope you never need one, though.
Is there a ground guy that hooks up the logs for the chopper? Also, how long are your work days?
👋🏼
Triple antibiotic gel. like Neosporin, I use a Equate product, and they make one that has a anti pain ointment/salve. Stay safe/Stay Alive. I would miss your shows. Be well.
As you are aware, cutting from a 'down hill' position is very dangerous, and unpredictable, are there no other options ?
I went into camp to replace a fellow who was rolled on by a big Doug Fir, no fun. get a longer bar.
For your first aid kit, pack a length of para cord or a 18 to 20 inch velcro strap for the purpose of making a tourniquet and some "butterfly"/closure bandages that can pull the skin on an open wound together. Not sure about your regulatory conditions but a extra strength tylenol or similar pain killer could be of use also.
tube of neosporin..
Yellajackets have been awful here in Ky this yr..
One mosquito would of been enough to drop that buck. But he flew away
Just curious, why do you usually do your cuts angled up?
Bjarne curious how you get paid in BC, I'm not asking the amount of $ but how? is it by bdft? or our hourly? or either depending on who you are cutting for?

Id add a tourniquet to your pocket and probably some medical scissors. A real tourniquet is a much better option than trying to make shift one from a belt or string especially when some is bleeding out
How do the block markers in the guys who mark your boundaries get into the area ?
We get flown in for blocks like that, sometimes we have to do big hikes.
Thanks so much for the reply. That would get the heart rate up and legs hurting !
Don't you worry about grizzly bears or mountain lions
Never have before until my coworker from this spring was chased by grizzly. Luckily he had his saw. Eventually the bear wandered off.
@@BjarneButler power saw V bear ... seems to me that a saw would level the playing field
So u don't work any longer than 6 hrs a day?
6.5 on the saw. But because it’s fire season and we’re in an excessive heat rating we are not allowed to work past noon. And the earliest the chopper could fly was 5:45.
@@BjarneButler thanks so much for replying. I used to work falling here in Australia. I really enjoy your comprehensive videos explaining how it all works, your thoughts on matters and oh the scenery and terrain you work in is phenomenal. Just getting to work in a chopper would ne highlight enough.
Thank you again.
Dave Kelly 👍
That was scary to watch...
You under all that weight
Why the limitations of 12:00?
