Any experience with small-scale log sales? Here is the situation. We have just purchased a tract of land that has 26 acres of woods, a mix of pine and hardwood. I am thinking about pulling much of the pine out to thin a much to thick timber stand but hate to see the destruction loggers with skidders will do to the woods. I was thinking that if I bought a tractor skidding winch I could selectively harvest the pine and stage it on a power easement we have to be picked up by the load. Might just get enough to pay for the winch over time.
I understand that it is hard to get anyone interested in small amounts of logs at a time. Guess I just don't understand why when all they would have to do is load and haul to the mill. Anyone have any experience in this area?
