This is aa fantastic video! Well done.Hello from Nova Scotia Canada, Hope to get back to Maine this coming winter for a snowmobile trip! Truly an awesome place!
Great video Jake! Really like all the different camera angles you capture, makes it feel like we are right there with you. Papa would have really loved this video. Going to miss you this year on the ice trip. I will take plenty of video
@@feenerproductions that would be phenomenal. Keep building a huge pile and see what happens. At least at that price your doing okay but more is always better. Prices Have been increasing slowly on everything which is about Time.
1986 and 1987 i was looging with a timber jack 230d and husky 266se then the economy cashed and the log markets dried up . I was the new kid on the block and no mills to sell to i took a job eventually sold the skidder best 2 years of my life
That’s another great video, takes a lot of time getting all those different angles but make for good watching. How’s the timber industry out there, here in MT they have about killed it off. Very few sawmills left compared to thirty years ago.
Thanks Highlander, we are still moving timber here easily but despite the increase price at the lumberyard the logger hasn’t seen much increase. A lot of our wood goes to mills in Canada.
@@feenerproductions I have a stand of spruce that is going past its peak as well. Its in a wet area and difficult to cut with the mild winters we have been having here on the coast.
Decent wood suckw u gotta go through all that to get ur machine running I just turn my key rather its 30 below or 90 out but I was also broke as fu k for years till my machine was paid off lol
Man, what a beautiful video. You're doing what I've spent 40 years doing and continue.
Thank you!
i am envious i worked in woods for years, went mining, and loving to get back in the woods, nothing more healthier, on body and mind!!
Couldn't agree more Rick. Thanks
Good Stuff!! A day in the life…..cold starts, good ground, great wood, and a piano!!!! Great videography! Keep em coming.
Haha the piano was a surprise to me as well! Thanks Shane.
I’d come up and help cut some wood this winter
And I'll come down to help too.

Likewise Matt, I thought of papa a lot while making this. He's always around. Thanks.
deer must be loving all that old mans beard
They've been hammering it, the moose have also been high-grading some of the tops. Just tracks though I'm yet to see any.
It's about time!! 😂 Great video Jake as always. Great conditions and Nice wood to cut ,it doesn't get much better than that. Be good and be safe.
Thanks Erik, this wood should've been cut 10 years ago it's almost as if it's going by.
@@feenerproductions right, but at least your getting decent volume out of it.
@@eriknelson6529 Very true, it's all going to St. Pamphile, Quebec at around 85$ a ton. Thinking it might go up some in 2022.

@@eriknelson6529 10-4, we'll see.

What is it about working in the woods?

Great video, I always wondered how you got the logs in a pile at the landing.
I'm not very good at it but some guys can really push them up high.
Hey Jake heard about your channel from some of the guys at work (MFS) your doing a solid job buddy happy for you, Stay safe. JC
Thanks Justin, miss you guys
Hello, you've reached Ireland, thanks to erik the viking, great footage..
Very cool thanks for that. I'm still not sure who Erik the viking is?
@@feenerproductions guess who Jake 😂
Nicky is a great friend I turned on to the channel.
@@eriknelson6529 the Viking I got it now. It appears Nicky knows his way around a saw.
Looked like some wicked spruce!
There's some good stuff some of it is passed it's peak.
@@feenerproductions I have a stand of spruce that is going past its peak as well. Its in a wet area and difficult to cut with the mild winters we have been having here on the coast.
@@downeastprimitiveskills7688 Ya thats tough. It's been semi mild here as well. Keep your eyes on it and get to when it gets good.
I thought young Avery was going to make an appearance near the end.
I had a clip in there then took it out last minute.
@@feenerproductions would’ve been millions of views
Doing contract work or do you have your own company? Thanks for the video. Happy New Year!
On my own at the moment. Thanks for watching.
@@feenerproductions Keep knocking them down then ... all the best to you ...
@@Ruger41mag You as well. Keep on keepin on.
Good one. I used to have a 230 with 353 Detroit. You runnin a Perkins in yours?
Yes its much quieter than the Detroit. Why did you part with your machine?
Cur all the wood I wanted on my land and bought a tractor.
@@FBMMaineOutdoorJournal You can do a lot with a tractor and farmi winch.
Do you ever limb using the blade and or tires of the skidder?
I do as much as I can, it's so much faster than limbing them with the saw.
It a shame softwood logs pay what they did 25 years ago ! Not many loggers left here in northern Vermont.
Are there any mechanical logging outfits down there? That’s how a majority of the wood is harvested here in Maine.
@@feenerproductions yes , a few, but not many running right now. Pulp doesn't pay much, and chips are hard to move
Awesome
Thank you
