Progress cutting Alders

Progress cutting Alders

Progress cutting Alders   I took advantage of the beautiful weather Friday and managed to make good progress on cutting Alders and opening up more view. Some of these Alders are right at the slope of the ravine getting pretty high up there for me to reach with the chainsaw. I bought the smallest saw […]

Cleared Birch Trees

Cleared Birch Trees

Cleared Birch Trees   This shot showing a similar view as the picture on the right after clearing lots of Alders that were growing in and around the Birch Trees. You will also notice the moose weren’t there this morning. The area I’m clearing today is up at the back North East border of the […]

Motley Crew

Motley Crew

Motley Crew   Well, the Alders I have cut down yesterday sure got the attention of the nearby moose cows, the word must have got out that I was laying out a buffet. All the tops with the new buds are now laying on the ground in a nice neat pile. When I went out […]

Clearing Trees!

Clearing Trees!

Clearing Trees!   Mostly cutting Alders again today, but tomorrow the two Birch in the picture are coming down too. That will leave one nice Birch in the very back and out of the way. The area pictured will make two of the pull out spaces for larger RV’s and the view from up here […]

Spring Inspiration!

Spring Inspiration!   Oh ya seeing the benefits of the clearing of last fall, the area here will be two spaces for longer term RV’s mine and one other lucky camper! I’ve trimmed the Alders in front that used to block the view of Grewink Glacier. The pasture up behind is home to herds of […]

It’s nice to see these healthy animals all over the place. I take it […]

Loading #17

Loading #17

Loading #17 This load is all scrap steel and remaing metal scrap, tanks and barrels. I finally ran load #16 to the landfill yesterday that was the frozen load which has been sitting since January 13th and was  by far the hardest and worst load to unload that I’ve hauled to the landfill so far. […]

Clearing The Ravine

Clearing The Ravine

Clearing The Ravine   This kinda gives an idea as to how big the Ravine is, I’d say it’s about 75′ x 45′ give or take I’m about 3/4 of the way around cutting Alders down to about 3′ off the ground. These will grow out as stealthily bushes. They completely surround the Ravine. I […]

Degradation Platform

Degradation Platform

Degradation Platform   So here is another Degradation Platform tied up to the Homer deep water dock earning the port $1,000. A day in mooring fees, better sitting here than out drilling holes in the Earth. Eventually mankind will learn this fossil fuel thing was a huge blunder, for too many reasons to list.
