Once a year we make a trip to go and harvest burl pine logs. On this particular trip we left at 6:30 a.m. and returned home at 11:30 p.m. It is a very long day, but so much fun, especially when we got to spend it together as a family and in the mountains.
It was an sunny, overcast and rainy day, we could hear the thunder rumbling across the mountains and the temperature was perfect for all the work we did that day.
This article is mostly pictures, documenting our trip.... as you can see, we used and old army stretcher to carry out the logs, they are very very heavy.....
Hope you enjoy the pictures

Pressure washing off the bark
Lots of burls to wash
Setting in an enclosed trailer to cure and dry. If they stay in the sun the wood will darken
