Removing dead white birch trees due to pesky porcupines with my Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 35M forestry logging skidding winch.
The electricity to the camper has been repaired and now using the Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 35M logging winch to remove the trees that were damaged over the winter by miss porcupine. I’ve caught and relocated miss porcupine in an earlier video. Now to get the camping site ready for another season. We’ll be working on the old house soon now that the porcupine is gone. Hopefully she is gone for good.
Alright. So here’s the campsite. Eventually we will have the camper sitting back up here right next to the water and all the electric connections.
Miss porcupine has been very busy. I know it’s a creature that has to survive every year but I wish they’d move it along somewhere else. Not my camping site. The love birch trees and these white birch trees is a nice snack for them.
Usually they climb them and start eating from the top while sitting on the branches and what have you. This particular birch here she’s gone all around the base of it. I think you can see it and taking the back off so that trees not gonna last and it’s near the camp.
So what I got to do is try to get some of these trees down that are near the camp that might not be long for this world.
I’d rather do it now when camp is not here. So that’s what I’ll be working on.
Alright so I want those birches to fall to our left camera and if you could see in the lower left corner firepit.
I want the birches to fall. That tree that’s just behind the firepit or just kind of behind it to the right. I want those birches to land right in between that and that’s Bert in the four wheeler.
I’ve got double pulley’s so I should have about fourteen thousand pounds force and I’m really not pulling it right now.
I’ve just got a little, just a very little bit of strain on it. Just to help it go in the direction I want it to.
Originally, those were leaning pretty much right towards the camera so it went down exactly where I wanted it to. Just beyond where the blue type is. That’s the fun fireplace.
There’s a tree behind the room just a little bit to the right of the fireplace. I wanted it on the other side of that and this side of that birch. It landed exactly where I wanted it to.
Okay. So I’ve got my helpful wife with me today. Linda’s over on the tractor with the Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 35M forestry skidding winch and I’m still working around our electric lines here. Making sure that these trees I’m cutting go away from the electrical lines.
This little birch, you can see the electric pole is right here and I want to keep it going away from the electric pole.
So this little one I’ve got to go to the right and the big one has to go to the left.
So let’s see how this works out!!!
Alright. You folks probably can’t see it. Let me zoom in. There’s one lone branch right there sticking out the right hand side of that white birch.
I want to try to get a throw line around it and then I’m going to get my strap up high. Hopefully. We’ll see.
Alright. So I’ve got the Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 35M logging skidding winch hooked up to this big white birch. I’m going to try to pan around a little bit so you can see now I got it hooked.
I mentioned in previous videos how handy skidding winches like the Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 35M forestry winches are.
I’ve got two pulleys at least double if not triple the pulling force and again that’s so that we can pull down this big tree.
I’m gonna make my slicing notch and then I’m going to put a little strain on it so that the felling notch will make it go in the direction I want it to go.
Alright. So were getting ready. So apparently my camera died. I’m not sure if I got the video or not but the tree went right in the direction I wanted it to go!!
Tree laid right across the driveway. I mean it really had no choice pulling it from one direction.
Thanks for watching and make sure to like and subscribe!
Big thank you to Hud-Son Forest Equipment Uniforest 35M skidding winch customer Charlie Bauer for sharing this picture. We love seeing our equipment on the job.
The Uniforest 35 M skidding winch is ideally suited for your compact tractor. This unit is rated for 16-45 horsepower and has 7700 lbs of pull. The main cable is 230 feet long and is 3/8” in diameter. It comes with 3 Cable Sliders and a Swivel End Fitter to attach multiple logs. The unit weighs in at 540 lbs and is a category I & II hitch. The 35M comes standard with upper and lower pulley, chainsaw scabbard, trailer hitch, and PV holder.
Make quick, safe work of your firewood or sawmill logs harvesting. The 230 feet of cable allows you to keep your tractor on solid ground and bring the logs to you. This also makes your operation low impact on the environment.

Alright. We are out in the woods today. This will be the first video of 2023 and hopefully we don’t have any issues.
So what we got is a pine tree and I’m running out of anchors, so I need a lot of chain. So I got the cable, couple chains all attached together but I was running out of anchor points. So I’m using the tractor which makes me a little nervous but this pine here is what I want to take down.
So, before I lose my old anchor tree here I want to get that down.
So, we got the chain wrapped around the tree with the snatch block, the cable that I’m using the cable off the tractor because I think there is about 230 feet of it, so it gives me lot’s of distance. I got the small comealong winch here. This is what I’ll use for actual tensioning. There is pretty good tensioning on it already. I just pulled the slack up on the tractor.
This here is going to be the anchor and the other point is going to be right here.
So I got the tractor kinda behind this oak tree here just in case something goes that we don’t pull the tractor over.
Hopefully this will be enough to keep everything from going over. If for some reason something goes wrong on us.
So this is where were set up. I got the second camera here and I figured that tree is about 90 feet. We’ll find out. 100 feet is right out here. That’s why that sticks right there. I measured it out. Should be 110 feet. I’m not quite sure that trees that long.
I guess we’re going to find out. So lets hop to it.
**noise chainsaw starting and running. Blocking tree and cutting it down. Using comealong to tighten cable. Tree falling, lands perfectly in log landing. **
Alright! So we made a mess! Got it down!
I knew it was pretty close on the backside when I cut it down. It seemed like when I was cutting it was opening up and the cable seemed like it got some slack in it. I kinda figured it was coming this way so a couple of cracks on the old comealong winch there. It lays pretty nice there.
We should measure it to see what the total length is there. Were pretty close. Got down to the nitty gridy here. So that’a a nice looking pine. All the way to the end here. Nothing in there, doesn’t look bad at all.
So I’ll get the chains off. I’m going to cut these up to 12 foot lengths again. It looks like I’ll get some decent lumber in here again.
Yeah, we missed the camera so were good that way.

Tractor moving around 12 foot blocked logs around to stack them by the shed.
Alright, so were wrapping it up here. At least for today. Everybody in the house has to go back to work tomorrow so I’m thinking I’ll come out here again. I’ll clean up what’s left here. It’s not too much. Probably half a day here. Looks like there’s a collteral oak branch that came down but overall it went okay. It was a little frustrating when we didn’t have enough cable to get that pine down and now I’m wondering if I should take the other one down too before I drop this oak.
I don’t know. The tractor is definat handy. 230 feet 3/8 cable is really nice to have. That makes a huge difference when your trying to move things.
I don’t know. I just feel like this pine is in the way too. If I could just pop this one out. Get this one down right away than were good. I hope!!
This oak here. I don’t think I’m going to do anything with. We’ll leave that one.
Maybe this one yet. This main one here still has to go. That one for sure we’ve got to get out of there but until I know I’m done I kinda want to leave that as an anchor. It’s good for pulling on.
So other than that really nice day out here today. It’s got to be close to 40 degrees out so we’re talking about rain and really heavy snow.
So were getting packed up and were going to head out. It was suppose to be cloudy all day today. The sun was out the whole time. So I never even put a coat on. Really nice, so.
