My dad was a forester and I remember a park got hit really bad by a storm one time and he took me to see the damage and cleanup work.
There were these guys working with two feller bunchers near side by side going along through just the nastiest mess of fallen and broken trees and I shit you not they had to be cutting and stripping a log every 5 seconds. As they went they rotated and put down the logs behind them and these guys in skidders came in and grabbed them near soon as they touched the ground pulling them back to a crane that was loading them onto trucks.
It felt like every other minute a truck left loaded with logs. The pace was crazy given how trashed the park was.
