Another update! New culverts have been installed and the widening of the Firehouse road (trail) was completed last week. Felling of the trees is expected to begin either this coming week or the next. We are in the process of trying to plan an educational Twilight tour to discuss the mechanics of a pole sale, so stay tuned for updates! This will hopefully happen by the end of the month.
The haul route for the utility pole logs will be Soap Creek Road, to Hwy 99 to avoid the winding and busy Lewisberg Saddle area. The log trucks will have a pilot car until they reach Tampico Road. After felling starts, there will be an estimated 4 loads per day between the hours of 4am to 1pm. We're still not entirely sure how long it will take to extract all the poles, but 2-3 weeks is a safe bet. See the post below for more information on utility pole sales in Douglas Fir stands!
