I'm jealous. Still waiting for something to pop. I still have a few years to wait.
That side by side looks like a snow beast with the tracks!
I'm going to try and do some cutting with my SIL in the next week or two myself.
What is that side by side? brand?It is becoming a game changer with where I can go and what I can drive through. Able to drive over 12'-14" logs. About 2/3 of the property is marsh which I could not really, now I can. With the 950 cc engine plenty of power.

Out trying to do some hinge cutting on our ash trees. They have been infected with emerald ash borer so time to start killing them. Found the ash tree would not hinge and completley broke off at the cut joint. This was the case for trees from 5" to 18".
Any thoughts?
Ash is a very straight grained wood and I feel one of the easiest ones to split by hand but still dense enough to provide good btu'sOut trying to do some hinge cutting on our ash trees.

I also consider it one of the trees to barber chair easier than most so hinge cutting would not be high on my list of trees for that.
My experiences are with many cords of green ash (the tree, not the seasoning of the wood) which is a tree which likes to grow by water and lowland woods. But expect black ash or white ash to be similar. The big ones I drop that are already leaners I will wrap a chain around above the cut for extra precaution.
Hinge cut bigger than saplings, no thanks
