March/April 2009
Timber Harvesting’s March/April issue features Bruno Couture’s cut-to-length system in his Cortland, NY operation, Couture Timber Harvesting. The issue highlights loggers going against the grain by signing maintenance contracts in order to boost uptime. Also featured are the Lasiter family’s logging legacy in Tullos, La. and a recap of the annual Oregon Logging Conference. A Roundup section spotlights makes, models, and options of processors.

Loggers are independent and resourceful by nature. Generally, they are loath to pay someone else to do anything they can do themselves.

Every now and then a logger lands a tract close enough to home to be able to enjoy lunch at the kitchen table.

Cat Forest Products offers a full range of processing heads for hardwood and softwood applications that can be mounted on both purpose-built harvesters and excavators.

Good weather and good crowds at the 2009 Oregon Logging Conference offset tough economic conditions for loggers and equipment manufacturers and dealers in attendance at this year’s event.

Dick Walsh, 69, a logging legend and standout forestry leader in central Minnesota, died January 9 at his residence near Park Rapids.
