Another big Larch snag. The biggest tree I've ever cut down. Used the 555 20" bar to fell the thing. The 20" only just overlapped.
Bucked with a 575XP 24" bar. Forget what you think you know about wood. These dry snags are real hard on the saws. To the point, I set fire to the wood during my back cut. Blued the chain. No chipping's, only fine dust.

Longstreet: your welcome thanks.
Oh yeah. That pic is a few days old. Have 24 rounds from that tree. Butt end was shot and up high was punky.
I even got the point for decorative purposes.

Yeah you can find some pretty isolated places.
Not sure about temps. 28-30C maybe.
Hot enough to boil the bar oil & fuel in the saw
