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.
