Bill, isn't it selective thinning for a healthier forest?
We did a 20% cut a few years back, worse part is cleaning up the mess. We are still cleaning up, over 12 trailer loads of "fire" wood hauled of. We had 7 truck loads of timber.

You need to move to Arizona when you retire, so there will be no logging work left to bother you, or trees to obstruct your view.

Very nice sir. Isn't it nice that we can look out of our windows and have such a view?
Except for the hippies, liberals, and communists (and February sometimes), Vermont is God's little patch O' heaven.

COL Jack,
As always, beautiful pictures. Thanks for posting them.
We have some friends here from Australia that are here in America for a year. This will be the first Fall where they actually get to see the leaves change like this. Can't wait to share these sights with them.
Hope all is well where you are.

Too many evergreens, you need to get some loggers out there.
