Logging in america

[xringphil]

yer i wouldnt want to start stright on cutting even if i could, i want to steer away from the climbing if possible, i enjoy the feelling and logging more, but id want to start at the bottom n work my way up regardless of my skills, i want to earn ther right to be a faller by showing hard work n toughness not just starting stright away bassed on years of expirence.

why not look to do some serious logging in this country 1st, there's people north of the border doing some big tree work, plus its not too far from home if you find its not for you. It would also build up your skllls base and make you more employable in the States in a few years time.

sounds like quite a good plan where abouts exactly would be a gd place to start looking mate ?

Stick up an ad in the Employment Forum, asking for logging/felling work in whatever area you want. I'd briefly outline your experience to date and see what happens.

IMO you should look for some work felling for a skyline on the West Coat of Scotland, Argyll etc...

 

Big trees, not all that far from home and amazing experience - you'll soon know if you like it or not!!
