No Gordy! They're all ponderosa! It's just desert pine, slow growing and dense compared to your coastal stuff. Also, welcome to the altitude, it's why the 500i is so popular here. We only have two species of pine, ponderosa and pinion. You ain't in the pinion, and it's too twisted for anything but firewood. We also have Doug fir, blue spruce, and In a few isolated areas in the south, we have Engelman Spruce. In that area it's all ponderosa, gamble oak, alligator juniper and a few shag bark cedars. But what do I know I'm just a Kaveman from the hills of Arizona with too many chainsaws...
I've seen farm to table, never timber to lumber! really enjoyed seeing that milling process, and that chipper was rad. more videos like these please, as I'm sure different regions with other species, like the Redwoods, would be interesting to see milled too.
I love having wood!!! Standing timber to usable lumber in one day. It’s so awesome to see the sawmill that goes so fast. My my sawmill is a band sawmill and goes as fast as I can push it. I like that they donate to the folks who can use the off cuts. The bio power station was shut down so to environmental whackos here on the western slope in Kaliforniastan! Thanks for sharing! Wood is good!!
Ya like that? Come see Logger Wade here in Indiana. He has a mill as well, all hardwoods though. His logging and his mill are a family operation, it is impressive. He's a great guy too. Thanks for this. I used to go camping in woods like that years ago when I lived down in Phoenix. Flagstaff is a beautiful area. Best regards from Indiana.
Awesome work, I've been a subscriber to your channel for years. I'm happy to see some content from Northern Arizona. I'm from the Navajo Nation and I live in Flagstaff.
First time I was intro'd to ya was in Reon Rounds Merlo vids. That machine was astonishing and ya did a good job on the vids. Then came "Guilty of Treeson", and now I seen more. Awesome stuff and nice narration. Never boring. Glad to see ya right here in mah own back yard! I used to work in Oregon in the mid 80's at Intel there for a bit. Enjoyed the PNW. Too rainy though. Hope ya had time to visit Grand Canyon and a couple of the other hidden gems only we who live here know about off the beaten path. Hope to meet ya someday. 😊
Wood is Wonderful! That was a popular bumper sticker when I was a kid 40 something years ago. I think we need to bring it back. Wood is a beautiful renewable resource most take for granted. I'd way rather see a tree farm than a trailer park in my area.
This is one of the coolest videos! I mean, you know, not as cool as the redwoods, but hey, this is pretty dang cool -for dang sure! Thanks Joe Dirt. I buy feed all the time from Olson's Feed. Live on the rez, but am from the PNW....
nice to see, not ever seen the complete process from tree to lumber! all in one day! good luck working on your own! it is such a hard thing to do! so many unknowns!
Im from New Mexico and we did a job over by Flagstaff as well. Our pines are almost exactly like those, probably cause we are at the same elevation where Im at. But I do remember the Arizona ones felt harder, and grow a lot straighter too
This was a great video! I was driving through the area heading to the Grand Canyon about this time. The weather was great and the scenery was beautiful! Again, super cool video!
Cool to see some Husqvarnas running down here. We run Stihl 461's with 28's and that will cut everything, even the "big" cottonwoods. Also, on the pecker poles I'll usually throw the wedge in parallel to the hinge.
I was literally just watching your "Logging in Norway!" video and this video dropped!! 😂 You really need to start using those tree lift/breaking bars for your felling work. I've used wedges and breaker bars but I always find that when I used just the wedges or just a breaker bar there was always a tree where I wanted the one I didn't have with me. And for anyone who thinks you can't fell big wood with a breaker bar, I've seen them used felling huge oak trees on a massive hard wood plantation..... you'd be surprised how much leverage you can get from a breaker bar 😊
I've toured the Humboldt Redwood Company Lumber Mill in Scotia California. It input the bark-covered logs and output finished lumber and plywood. Very impressive.
Man it looks like you are in the Goldendale/ Mt Adam's area where my Great Grandpa Coolidge drove the Shay log train between Klickitat and Mt Adam's area and my other Great Grandpa Steindorf and Grandpa Coolidge worked in the mill along with my dad, step-dad and uncles in Klickitat Washington.
I was one of the youngest certified arborists in the United States. I've been working in the tree service since I was twelve and I'm 37 now. I've been watching your videos a while now. At first I was unimpressed to be honest but I have seen your personal growth as an arborist and I have to say, I am very impressed with you. Thank you for putting out such great content and thank you for your humble, honest and professional approach to our industry. You're going to inspire a lot of people. Keep it up brother!!
If the tree is not leaning the way you want to fell it, the wedges push the tree over against the lean. If you don't use wedges in that circumstance the tree will eventually lean back and trap the saw bar.
It’s weird with the altitude cars do the same thing. At first you feel a little power loss but after a while they get used to it and run fine usually. Lived at sea level my whole life now I’m up at 5000 and work at 7-8000 so many things that you would never think change but do with thinner air. from the motors running odd water boiling at lower temps and beers foaming a ton when you open 😆
I saw Greta crying face when he started up that 3410 cat. Same engine on our Ingersoll rand t4 well drilling rig. I believe that's a 10 or a 12 cylinder engine and I'm pretty sure ours runscat about 500 horses.
I remember seeing you run the grapple loader on a chipper and thinking "Either his editor is making him look good, or he's a natural." Not everybody can figure out that hand-eye coordination, good on ya!
Hopefully you guys took the time to drop into Sedona, about the most picture perfect area right near there. And yes, what a difference that desert mountains has on trees vs the northwest.
I've heard bull pine, ponderosa pine, and black pine. Then there's larch/tamarack, and grand fir/white fir/piss fir. It was easier in Wisconsin. The only thing we had two names for was aspen/popple. We had red oak, black oak, white oak, and pin oak, as well as red maple, soft white maple, and hard maple, but they were all clearly different.
Thanks for the video and the beautiful sights. Wondering if you would explain the equipment you use like what the whistle is for and other tools of the trade. Thanks again from New England here.
Great job on this video. I always wondered how it was done. I would kind of like it if you promoted replanting in your vids. I saw your concern about animals when you took down those two firs so I know you're environmentally conscious. Just a thought.
Jeeezus, that Generator Cat engine is not well. She's just about wore out, loose as a Goose, down on compression and burning some oil. Just about ready for a good refresh. Yeah, I know you're at a bit of altitude, but she's got some hours on her......
Good video brother I love your content , I do tree work myself would love to be a groundsman for you if you ever decide to make a company, just a thought i would love to see you purposely mess up your face or back cut "like a know it all home owner would" an do like a kinds what do to segment haha , i personally have been put in alot of situations where the home owner has mess up really badly and had to fix it or make the best out of a bad situation , I think it would be cool video when your in a situation where no matter what way it goes its okay haha just a thought
I noticed you were cutting a couple times without ear protection. I know you are a pro and know what you are doing, but please don't ignore your hearing

Lol that generator starting totally offset all the weedeaters I can't buy in California anymore haha I love it
Thanks!
Another cool video! Gordie is a good friend.....so supportive! He needs that truck!!
I've seen farm to table, never timber to lumber!
really enjoyed seeing that milling process, and that chipper was rad.
more videos like these please, as I'm sure different regions with other species, like the Redwoods, would be interesting to see milled too.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This video was a real treat! I’ve never seen anything like this machinery! Thanks for bringing us along.❤
I love having wood!!! Standing timber to usable lumber in one day. It’s so awesome to see the sawmill that goes so fast. My my sawmill is a band sawmill and goes as fast as I can push it.

Have you seen the mill tour with Letsdig18? I loved it so much I watched it twice. Very cool operator logger wade has.
Yes I have, it's well worth watching.
Awesome work, I've been a subscriber to your channel for years. I'm happy to see some content from Northern Arizona. I'm from the Navajo Nation and I live in Flagstaff.
Hope you enjoyed Arizona and our sunshine! Nice to see you north😊
I did!
That was fun beginning to end. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
I is a pleasure to watch people that know what they’re doing and are good at it.

The thing with lumber is that it's so amazing that deforestation became a very real issue.
Reforestation is another alternative.
@@AnomadAlaska Absolutely true. It's just a shame the lag between the two is often 30+ years.
Nice new logging rig ya got there.
For everyone that works there it is just another day but can you imagine the amazing smell? Freshly cut, freshly milled lumber.
Great work men. Stoney from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺
Bless AWESOME 👏 video. Seeing trees become lumber is great. Thanks 😊
It really is!
Crazy process.
Enjoyed watching that.
Stay safe
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video ,keep making stumps boys
Very cool to watch!
Thanks for sharing the process .
This was one of the best videos I've seen you make. Thanks for sharing the entire process!
This is one of the coolest videos!
I mean, you know, not as cool as the redwoods, but hey, this is pretty dang cool -for dang sure!

Pretty darn cool to see tree to lumber. Nice video gents !
awesome Jake & Gordy. thanks for the ride
Enjoyed the video. Nice seeing the entire process. A1
Glad you enjoyed it
I appreciate that JR's notches are usually high on the powerhead side. I do that too, and I'm desperately seeking validation. 🙂
This was a great video! I was driving through the area heading to the Grand Canyon about this time. The weather was great and the scenery was beautiful! Again, super cool video!

This was yet another awesome video! So cool they give wood to the area Native Americans to use.
Very cool
I've toured the Humboldt Redwood Company Lumber Mill in Scotia California. It input the bark-covered logs and output finished lumber and plywood. Very impressive.
And expensive!
@@wrstew1272 The tour was free!
Well done

this guy definitely smokes the ganja lol afterwork the sun glasses go on for the videos and the mood is a little better i love it
It's cool to see how different a small operation like the mill in this video is compared to where I work
Great to see thank you for the two videos. That saw dust would be GREAT for my free range hens. 😊👍
Would love to see their kiln
I think they air dry outside in the low humidity.
If only all the forest in USA and around the world were managed this way. Great Job.
Shure? Why must germany send mio Meter of wood to the US?😅😅😅😅
Congrats on reaching 1 Million subscibers Bet that makes your old boss unhappy Well Done
I know nothing about cutting trees but I love your channel.
What is the reason for wedges instead of just using the saw?
If the tree is not leaning the way you want to fell it, the wedges push the tree over against the lean. If you don't use wedges in that circumstance the tree will eventually lean back and trap the saw bar.
@@usefulcontent9894 I see thanks for the explanation.
Anyone know where I could get some quality falling supplies 😊.

The felling lever could be handy on trees like this :-)
You need to come up to Canada
Great video. It is nice to see where wood / lumber and electricity comes from. Were all the machines electric?

Hay, when you're too old to climb, you have a multitude of options for continuing to "treeson" from a comfortable seat.... which is your favourite?
Jake how wide are the logging truck bunks in arizona, 14ft?
DID YOU USE THAT 36" BAR TO PUT YOUR AUTOGRAPH ON A 4x4 ?
Like a sawmill in germany in the 1970s. Very progressive!!😅😅😅😅
Great job on this video. I always wondered how it was done. I would kind of like it if you promoted replanting in your vids. I saw your concern about animals when you took down those two firs so I know you're environmentally conscious. Just a thought.
25:30 how dare you 😄
Behöver man grövre vattenslang eller fungerar det med ”standard”?
Whats with the low back cuts Jacob?
Do you have any advice for someone young just getting into tree work
Jeeezus, that Generator Cat engine is not well. She's just about wore out, loose as a Goose, down on compression and burning some oil. Just about ready for a good refresh. Yeah, I know you're at a bit of altitude, but she's got some hours on her......
What year was the army truck built?
that is gordy's truck now
I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
It's silly, but I love running the forestry equipment in Farming Simulator. Loading logs onto the trailer is the most tedious part.
🎉
Mmmmmm. Elk stew!
I like the hard hat, but why no eye or ear protection? Chaps too
But the question is - Does the mill like the conventional cut?
Good video brother I love your content , I do tree work myself would love to be a groundsman for you if you ever decide to make a company, just a thought i would love to see you purposely mess up your face or back cut "like a know it all home owner would" an do like a kinds what do to segment haha , i personally have been put in alot of situations where the home owner has mess up really badly and had to fix it or make the best out of a bad situation , I think it would be cool video when your in a situation where no matter what way it goes its okay haha just a thought
How do I get a job like this?
you think these are slow growing come and see the swamp pine forests 150 years and the tree was no more than 6 inches
😀
that plant generator runs as clean as my ex wife
I called them ponderosa pines because that's what the fake trees look like on the studio lot of the TV show Bonanza lol
🇺🇸💞
Those small trees are hard to control. We call them "pecker poles"
Don’t need such a big bar - used to fell trees of the same size with a 13 inch bar and felling lever. Much easier to sned with a small bar.
But big bar is easier as you don’t have to cut both sides and you don’t have to bend over to buck and limb
Yeah, he knows that. It just so happened to be the bar he had.
I noticed you were cutting a couple times without ear protection. I know you are a pro and know what you are doing, but please don't ignore your hearing
Pardon!
