Falling an old growth redwood tree; Humboldt County, CA, 2002

California coastal Redwood that I fell in Humboldt County in spring of '02. 9 feet inside bark diameter; 33,000 board feet, only 130 feet tall because the top had blown out of it. Fell it with my Stihl 088 with a 60 inch Cannon bar. We were using silvey tree saver jacks, to jack it up the hill. The tree was bucked into 20' logs, and the first and second logs had to be quartered, while the third and fourth logs, had to be ripped, so that they could be flown out, with a boeing 234 chinook helicopt
