Boundaries Dan: OK, great, I’ll start tree marking then. But before I start, how will I know when I get to the property boundary in your woodlot? Landowner: You’ll know it when you see it. Dad always said when you get back to the old well, that you’ve basically hit the property line. Dan: Uh huh…
Tree Marking • Typically 25 – 30% of trees are marked in one thinning/harvest • Marked trees are usually a variety of sizes • Pick the worst first • Wildlife values, spacing, aesthetics, extraction routes, etc. all are taken into consideration when marking • What is left is of more importance than what is taken • Trying to improve the potential value of the woodlot through tree marking

Doing it Yourself “Hey Dan, it seems to me that the logger takes a lot of the value out of the log, I think I’m going to log it myself and then you can buy the logs? ? ”
Logging is a Dangerous Profession
If you don’t have a truckload, you don’t have zip….
Value “Dan, I’ve got a tree on my lawn that I want to get rid of. My buddy told me it was Black Walnut and worth thousands. Come check it out, I am accepting bids!”
