Storm took down a big maple last night. The main trunk is 20+ feet long and the butt end is close to 30" its hang 6' up hanging on its branches and stump and just screams bear trap. Im going to call some tree guys to get everything to the ground and chunked up for firewood. At this point I do not have the time, storage space and finances to start milling wood. I'm considering having the main trunk cut into 6 foot logs and breaking them down further with wedges. If I can lift the timbers I will be able to get them blocked off the ground and tarp tented over. Since moving to the Eastern Shore of Maryland I have been watching mushrooms grow on everything I haven't been able to get under cover, so I have to be careful about putting energy into things that will immediately start composting.
Any thoughts?
