Most owners are well- versed in tree planting, vegetation control, and stand management, but planning a timber harvest and selling the logs is a process that occurs infrequently and uses terminology some owners find confusing. Terms like feller, buncher, Scribner, merch, cull, and long-butting are not often used in everyday conversation. Logging and selling timber in small volumes on small acreages comes with its own unique challenges and opportunities. Equipment, harvest unit layout, and merchandising are aspects of small harvest operations that can be especially difficult to manage. Although small-scale harvests can be economically In small-scale harvesting, contractors often subcontract driven like most larger harvesting operations, just self-loading log trucks because the small volumes don’t as often, the primary objective might be something justify moving a loader onto the site. such as creating a park, improving wildlife habitat, conducting an early thinning, removing dead or (MBF) of timber.

SIMMONS, logging specialist NORTHEASTERN FOREST EXPERIMENT STATION FOREST SERVICE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE - - - WASHINGTON, D. C, 1951 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C. Price 75 cents Preface THOSE who want to be successful in any line of work or business must learn the tricks of the trade one way or another. For most occupations there is a wealth of published information that explains how the job can best be done without taking too many knocks in the hard school of experience. For logging, however, there has been no ade- quate source of information that could be understood and used by the man who actually does the work in the woods. This NORTHEASTERN LOGGERS' HANDBOOK brings to- gether what the young or inexperienced woodsman needs to know about the care and use of logging tools and about the best of the old and new devices and techniques for logging under the conditions existing in the northeastern part of the United States. Emphasis has been given to the matter of workers' safety because the accident rate in logging is much higher than it should be. Sections of the handbook have previously been circulated in a pre- liminary edition. Scores of suggestions have been made to the author by logging operators, equipment manufacturers, and professional forest- ers.

  • High-Lead Logging on the Olympic Peninsula 1920S- 1930S
    High-Lead Logging on the Olympic Peninsula 1920s- 1930s Developed by Tim Wright Olympic Peninsula Community Museum in partnership with the University Libraries, Center for the Study of the Pacific Northwest, and the Department of History at the University of Washington Table of Contents I. High-Lead Logging II. Instructions on Becoming a Logger III. Loggers' Whistle Signal Codes IV. Glossary of Logging Terms V. Classroom Exercises This curriculum packet focuses on the rise of mechanized logging on Washington's Olympic Peninsula. The packet consists of an overview of the logging process, contemporary instructions on becoming a logger, a whistle signal code, a glossary of commonly used logging terms, and a list of suggested classroom exercises. This focused packet can be used in conjunction with the broader packet on Washington's forests or a way to examine the relationship between technology, labor, and the environment. I. High-Lead Logging Introduction Italicized words are explained in the Glossary of Logging Terms. The tip of the Olympic Peninsula offers a case study on the intersection between technology, market demands, and resource exploitation. Although early European and American visitors had noted its dense forests, filled with trees of enormous girth and height, the region’s lack of suitable harbors—ports located within a mile of the most marketable timber—limited the timber that could be profitably harvested and moved to market—especially when more accessible timberlands were available throughout the region. It was not until a railroad line from the mills at Port Angeles began to snake toward the small town of Forks in the first decades of the twentieth century that lumber became a significant economic activity on the western edge of the Olympic Peninsula.
