Storm clean up. Tool 3 leaning pines down. 2 of them were tangled up together. The third one I managed to get tangled. Lol! Once felled, I skidded em out with the Kubota.
I learned a new technique today. When cutting leaning trees that are tangled, Use the top of the chain saw bar to cut upwards perpendicular to the ground. The bar won't get pinched and once you cut through, the remaining tree slides right off of it. Violent, but it worked perfectly.

I imagine foot placement is very important with that technique. And steel-toe boots.
