10/25/2004   We decided to see what we could do using the powertrack.

10/25/2004  It turned out to be very difficult.  The stumps were too high for the powertrack to drive over, and there was lots of slash to clear.  He made a few big piles, but got tired pretty quickly.  He had to stop and cut every stump so he could make enough of a path to be able to pick up the slash.

The end result of the powertrack work.  We decided to leave it again for a few years – maybe the slash will decay enough that it won’t be so difficult next time.
