    Congrats on 56 Russ! Awesome INFI scores as well! I'm loving the sawback TB and the coated MOAB!

    HAHA, LOL na it just showed the depth of blue in the glacier real well. It's amazing how that happens during the formation of a glacier. Actually it kinda looks like a blue flame and in truth you can get methane gas out of frozen bog lands enough to the point you can ignite it

    It took a while......

    If you look in the background, we started off with that limb and got nice and warmed up.

    Bout halfway through the big one we (drbarnes and myself, since Bobby doesn't know how to chop ) were exhausted and both our hands were bleeding. I had blisters (which burst) on both hands and I has a raw spot occur on my pinky, and Dave kept whacking his knuckles on the trunk and skinned a couple spots raw.

    Overall, the damn thing took a little over an hour. Good thing it was only 90 degrees with 80 some odd percent humidity.


    IF we were smart, we would have started on the trunk first and not a limb, but that would have made too much sense

    You're more than welcome to come to the next chopping session. This was a makeshift one that took a whole 2 days to plan.

    We got motivated because on another forum someone asked if people actually use thier Busses or just stare and slobber on them.

    Pfff, I take it he has yet to own one?

    Always nice to see a $2500 (slightly inflated) piece at work, good job

    I'm still in shock that M67 didn't even ask to throw it.
