Taking down trees and chopping firewood on Gabriola Island

We have just finished taking down 8 big cedar trees that were approx. 70ft tall in the back of our house to open our yard up to sunlight and so that we can build a garage when the time comes.

In the front yard we have taken down a clump maple that was 70 ft tall and consisted of 4 main trunks. Some of this maple clump had rotten and during the snowfall last Feb. the tree was bent over with the weight of the heavy snow.

After having the trees limbed and cut, we sold some of the long cedar lengths.  The rest Geo and his crew are chopping and splitting for firewood.  It looks like at least 10 cords of firewood for next winter.

Our wood stove will be glowing and hot next winter!
