On that dueling banjo note, (please pardon the pun, but I couldn't help myself),,,,,,do you know what you call the offspring of a Woman from Estacada and a fella from Molalla? A little Molestacader!!!! So sorry to the fine folks back 'VERY' close to where I grew up at.

The only people I know who have been killed by falling trees were professionals. And if I remember correctly, the FS doesn't let people fall timber for firewood... only downed. Usually culls that the mill didn't want so the loaders left on the landing.
If you have a second bar and chain for your saw, be sure and take that, and if you don't, maybe buy one. If you are cutting a log and get your bar stuck (it can happen), just take the powerhead off, replace the bar and chain, cut the old one fee, and get back to cutting.
The roads are all normal gravel roads. If they are dirt - they are designated trails and you must have an ORV permit to be on them on Forest Service - State Forest lands.Yeah I can go in a bit, I don't have the winch anymore so I guess it depends on how badly off-camber those muddy roads are. My setup is a 16' tandem axle with walls behind the 4x4 Blazer.
