The biggest of those logs is about 1000 pounds. I hope the claw truck
is working well. Not bad work for an old guy tho.

I am guessing 3 18 wheelers

Up here most of that would be run through a chipper (diesel operated of course). Then you'd probably
be down to a couple deuce-and-a-halfs.


I haven't seen a chipper with a 3 foot throat. The county says they
are planning on 2.5 to 3 million yards of stuff so the chipper method
might be to slow. They are here with a gradall and 10 yard dump
trucks. It is going to be a while for that too. Last time (Charley)
they had 18 wheelers.
That was a contractor, this is county DOT.
