more likely that a bird will find him.
I found many of these in dead standing pitch pines we took down. Throw them away, get some water, come back, and birds galore getting their protein shots for the day.

No ATV's and no log dragging, in Idaho?? Good grief

Not on forest land. No cutting by streams or campgrounds, no cutting wildlife trees, etc.... Rangers check you too. ATV's allowed but they pretty much have to stay on roads or designated trails. I went back 5 days later to pick up what I had left - it was gone!!!! Damn, I cussed for 10 minutes "....cut your own damn wood!......asshxxxxs!......etc...." He took about a cord but left a few ant infested rounds - how kind of him/them. Oh well, I moved 200 yards and cut down 3 more small trees. The e-barrow worked good going up hills - made it much easier.

Technically no motorized equipment to get firewood - and an electric wheelbarrow does have a motor. So we'll see how it goes. I called and the Forest Service person was unsure.

The month of December has been cold here. I have been just keeping the garage full and stoves fed. Going to be another cold weekend with temps in the teens for lows.

I wish! We'll be -15, won't have highs in the teens 😂.

Today I spent a good chunk of the day plowing and snowblowing before doing a Red Cross blood drive.
