I like coming back and rewatching a lot of videos from my favorite tree channels, August Hunicke, Guilty of Treeson and Westcoast Saw. The main thing I take away from all 3 is, the comradery. Ole Dan just gets in there and bangs wedges and at least on video, doesn't complain and just keeps going. Gaining all sorts of knowledge and doing what it takes. I dig it.

Another great video. I love watching you guys getting out there and cut. I’ve been operating heavy equipment doing site development and underground utilities for just shy of 20 years. I’m just to damn old and broken at this point to take on a new trade but I sure like going out out on a weekend and helping some buddies do tree work. I’m down here in the graham area. Anyways, Mr west coast, I can’t be the only one that would love to see a video doing a walk around of all your beautiful trucks. You’re teasing us gear heads every time you pan right on past one of those bad boys like it’s not even there. There definitely something to proud of, give us a little closer look… build specs, engines, axles… I’ll talk all you give me. Thanks Gordy.

I had to laugh when you were cutting the uprooted blow downs; the other day I had an uprooted black cherry that I thought would be neat to get a video of flopping back down when I cut the tree off. I set the camera up made the cut and there it set! I could probably cut 20 without a camera on them and they would flop one way or the other but not the one I wanted footage of:) I am glad you are sharing your time in the woods.
