RE: Spring is here! Time to get to work.
I've never been much of a lumberjack. The only trees I ever cut down I chopped down with an ax. I've probably processed almost as much wood with my Bowie knife for campfires, but it was all squaw wood.
Can't go wrong with an axe either :) although, it would just take a lot longer. Squaw wood is exactly what you want cause its dead and will burn fast. Is there any wooded areas where you live? I wouldn't think so, but I could be wrong.
Nope. Except for where people have planted trees-- around houses or parks. If you see a clump of trees out in the middle of nowhere it's either around a house or where a house used to be. And most of the trees are horrible Siberian elms (they call them "Chinese elms", but that's a different tree).
But I've lived in forested places before. And prefer them... as long as there's no humidity.
