Title A name given to the resource Logging - Lewis and former Albert Property Description An account of the resource There are a variety of logging methods in use in the mid 2010's. This collection features clearing out an area of about 9 ha (22.5 acres) as well as a small spruce plantation planted in the 1930's. The operation is highly mechanized, using relatively large specialty equipment. According to our next-door neighbor who moved to the area in 1962, Mrs. Vaughan who owned the property had a number of 'make work' projects for the townspeople during the depression in the 1930's. One project was planting about 6000 spruce trees in at least 3 locations. Another was constructing a swimming pool. I well remember Lester Champion speaking of building the swimming pool, and how cold the water was. I never swam in it, but went over there a fair amount in the 1980's and 1990's.

Mechanical tree harvesting employs relatively large equipment. This video shows the use of a 'feller buncher' with with an operator approaches a tree, cuts it and then stacks it for removal from the site for further processing. Further processing can include chipping, cutting into saw logs or (for hard wood) cutting into firewood. This kind of equipment has been in use at least since the early 1970's where it was (and likely still is) for large scale tree harvesting for the paper industry in Maine and New Brunswick.

Part of mechanical logging involves chipping brush and other refuse which can subsequently be burned in a bark boiler. In this case, clean chipped wood is going to Cooley Dickenson Hospital in Northampton, MA. This chipper here has knives; its use is restricted to clean brush and wood. Stumps and dirty brush is processed in a separate type of chipper. The ability to access the chipper with a truck dictates whether or not chipped product is put onto the ground and then loaded or chipped directly into a truck.

Title A name given to the resource Sapling and Brush Chipping Subject The topic of the resource Landscape Description An account of the resource Video. Saplings and brush resulting from a logging operation is mechanically chipped in anticipation of transportation off site. Abstract A summary of the resource. Part of mechanical logging involves chipping brush and other refuse which is subsequently used as bark mulch. Wood that is clean is chipped for use as a fuel in a bio-mass boiler. Wood that is dirty is chipped into bark mulch. Chipping for bark mulch involves a chipper with teeth instead of knives. This video shows chipping for bark mulch. Note how the top of the chipper unit rises and falls as it automatically adjusts the feed rate into the machine. The ability to access the chipper with a truck dictates whether or not chipped product is put onto the ground and then loaded or chipped directly into a truck.

Title A name given to the resource Logging - Lewis and former Albert Property Description An account of the resource There are a variety of logging methods in use in the mid 2010's. This collection features clearing out an area of about 9 ha (22.5 acres) as well as a small spruce plantation planted in the 1930's. The operation is highly mechanized, using relatively large specialty equipment. According to our next-door neighbor who moved to the area in 1962, Mrs. Vaughan who owned the property had a number of 'make work' projects for the townspeople during the depression in the 1930's. One project was planting about 6000 spruce trees in at least 3 locations. Another was constructing a swimming pool. I well remember Lester Champion speaking of building the swimming pool, and how cold the water was. I never swam in it, but went over there a fair amount in the 1980's and 1990's. The trees north of ours were removed around 1991. Ours have been due for removal for many years. We took advantage of a logging operation on adjacent land to ours in January 2017.
