Well smack my ass and call me accurate #nostr! That tree landed EXACTLY where I wanted it to go. The thing had a 10°+ lean UPHILL but the branches were all to the downhill side. Sometimes I manage to impress myself, and that is a hard task most days.

Now as soon as the boys walk in the house I will send them up to trundle the rounds down the 90ft slope so I can load them to haul to the wood cover. Trundling is a core memory of my childhood and they will have it too.

im uncomfortable doing those first two things, but nice job with the cuts.

Lol, to each their own. It's so fulfilling having a tree fall on the spot intended.

So I'm guessing it felled to the downhill side with all the branches on that side?

Side hill! I 've figured out how to get my face and back cuts right to deal with some of these jacked leans.
