Well I've got a week of 45 degree slopes felling and dragging mature hawthorn,
Over flooded rivers.

OK, you win! ?

 

It's just been so wet for so long. Just over 400mm in the past 11 weeks. The majority of the rain free days have been foggy, so no drying. The only week I've seen any drying all winter preceded Storm Ciara and then was completely undone by the weekend's rain. 

 

I was chatting to another forestry contractor down here, and he said he's spent more time debogging and repairing machines this winter than actually operating them.
