I'm an avid hiker and I hate this kind of thing with a passion. These old growth trees can take hundreds of years to grow and are more fire resistant than smaller, younger trees. Even if there isn't any trails through there, there could be. Build more trails, and stop logging and ruining the scenery for others! I do not want to gaze across an ugly clear cut during my hike. Don't come up to me and tell me we have way more than enough trees to hike through… we don't. If you hike hundreds of miles a year, like most avid hikers, including myself, you would realize that good areas are hard to come by. Most of BC in Canada is chock full of clear cuts... I've scoured the images on Google Earth. The only places without them are the very few and small provincial parks and national parks. They pale in comparison to all the protected wilderness areas, national parks, and monuments we have down in Oregon and Washington. Yes, we do logging here too, but not nearly as much on public lands-most of our logging is pushed aside to private forests and state forests. I've hiked at least 800 miles in the last 6 years, so I have good experience with the forest and the effects of logging on public lands and old growth forests. Because of the Northwest Spotted Owl, we proudly stopped most logging activities on ALL of our public lands. Canada, learn a lesson from us! Don't log away all your beautiful old growth forests. Instead, preserve them for future generations to enjoy. Even if there are no trails there, there is always a possibility of building more trails in the future. You can never have too much hiking trail mileage available to the public.

What a beautiful place, thanks for all you do. Stay safe.

Brad Attfield At first I thought the tree was a Western Redcedar (Thuja plicata). I was wrong. It turns out to be a Chamaecyparis nootkatensis. In the Pacific Northwest of the USA that species is found in high elevations with plenty of precipitation. Your falling location is in the western mountains of British Columbia. Given the higher latitude, that timber species can occur at lower elevations than those further south in latitude in the state of Washington. The common name for that species in the USA is Alaska yellow cedar. Break off a small live twig, and it smells like potatoes. It is a magnificent species. Many of the logs used in the Paradise Lodge on Mt. Rainier were Alaska yellow cedar. They came from the trees felled for making the roadway up the mountain.

​@John Smith Lol you really don't get it do you? Let me give you the info you don't have: This tree is an old growth tree, British Columbia has already logged 99% of their old growth trees. Yes trees are everywhere here, except we have felled 99% of the old trees already, so It seems a little stupid to continue decemating the last 1% just for a few bucks... Logging companies can and do easily make money off of 100-200 year old trees, except their profit margin is bigger on bigger trees, so even though they could choose not to, they continue to cut down the very few 1000 year old trees we have left. All because the CEO can afford an extra trip to the Bahamas. Their logic is: Why cut down 5 normal trees when we can cut down 1 irreplaceable majestic 1000 year old tree? Its not like it takes 10 lifetimes for 1 of those trees to be regrown...

My house was built 40 years ago in Southern California probably out of Douglas Fir and pine . I'm a general contractor / architect by trade . Trees that are purposely grown for lumber use . and Or tree clearing for fire break by the national forestry is fine by me . It's ones who get enjoyment by defacing nature so no one can enjoy it any longer . Could imagine what a gorgeous view from that tree it was. Now there's a stump there maybe somewhere else in 150 yrs someone will appreciate that particular tree for what it is and let it be.

It doesn't matter. Any clear cut is an ugly scar on the landscape. If you hiked through there, you would have to contend with a clear cut ruining your view. When clear cuts are done over trails, they usually destroy the trail in the process, to make matters worse. People who hike want to hike in a place that looks completely natural and beautiful. Clear cuts are plain ugly, and ruin the scenery. As an avid hiker, that is why I HATE clear cuts. Logging in general, but especially clear cuts when they're done on public lands that we all are supposed to own. When they are done on private land, who cares. It is not my land to hike on, anyway.

You really should read about wood/forest cutting,unless it's illegally done,in which case it most likely won't be on youtube,they plant new trees the moment old ones are cut. This is not 70s where woods were chopped out and nothing was put back in place. And it's a shame,because people like this bloke gets looked down upon by certain green-mean-machines who have consumed enough plastic in their lifetime to kill off a small island wildlife without knowing any facts. Sure you can make an argument that ''Oh well,but why this tree? it's been around for 100s of years,why not cut a smaller,younger one?'' Well,it might come as a surprise to many people,but old trees are.....old,they start to rot from inside,which means that we can either let it be,allow it to rot to a point where it will fall down by it self and rot away on the ground providing no benefit to us,or the wildlife,or we can cut it down few years before it's end,and make use of it. What's even sadder is that most of the tree-huggers are less educated than the blokes they run mouths about,which is actually sort of ironic.

mike scott Look,the thing is,yes,these guys replant the trees,and there are a whole lot of people who plant trees not only to renew the population but just because there happen to be an open space of grassland somewhere,but there are still a whole lot of people in this industry who cut down trees by thousands without replanting a thing. We create green-piece organizations and recycle because that makes us feel like we are not just consuming and destroying,and it's good...for us if anything else. The truth is,we can recycle all that we want,there still will be increasing production of plastics and growing demand for timber,because we are reproducing in larger and larger numbers by the month,so at the end of the day,if we all would stop recycling,the only thing that would change is the longevity of smog clouds over cities at winters. Simple fact is this,the planet has survived billions of years of bombardment by asteroids,countless ice ages,dinosaurs,storms of all kinds,mass fires,pollutions of different sorts,floods and a whole lot of other stuff,if people really believe that few plastic bags will kill the planet,they are horribly wrong,the only thing that can happen is we end up making already a rather inhospitable planet even more inhospitable,and no matter what we do,we won't manage it in our lifetimes,it would take generations upon generations of people chopping wood,producing prius-like cars and a whole lot of other stuff to eventually within few tens of thousands of years make the planet finally so hard to live on,that we would either be forced to relocate,or go extinct. As for those saying ''yea but what about the next generations? we gota make sure we leave clean planet behind'' Well,first of all,it's too bloody late for that,second of all,don't lie to your selves,the only thing you're trying to do here is to justify your own existence,so that at the last minute of your life you could look back and feel selfishly good about how you have led it. Granted i am not pointing the finger to you,or anyone else for that matter,i am just talking here in general about your average person.

Everybody that thinks the tree is literally crying when it's falling, has absolutely no idea about wood, whatsoever. Trees doen't have a nervous system, therefore they don't feel themselves being cut. Also, when the top of that tree hit's the ground, it scatters seeds everywhere, and those seeds all compete against each other to grow another green giant.

Look, I am not a wood cutter professional by any means. However just from a viewing the tree in the video. It looks to me like a lot of good wood was left at the stump. It appears you could have cut down at least another 6 feet. At the mill this would have meant a lot more board feet. I can only assume they cut the tree were it was safe to get the job done.

Double lead trees like that one, especially on a steep hillside, are very difficult to judge and fell closer. Cedar is often unsound or decayed close to the ground. They sometimes slab or make a "deathchair". CUTTING THEM HIGHER IS SAFER AND MORE PRODUCTIVE. Not "hollering", just making a point.

+User Name Lol. NO. That tree was definitely not over 1000 years old. It's a cedar and you can see the point where the top comes down shows it to be sixty to eighty feet. I'm guessing closer to sixty. I've been climbing and felling trees for fifteen years in Tahoe and we have LOTS of cedars this size. At its oldest, based on height and DBH, it's probably more like 150. Also, there are a number of reasons trees are cut - thinning for for forest health, harvesting beetle infected trees, etc. It seems like a simple issue of "these guys are just out cutting trees for timber", but quite often, particularly with our current drought conditions on the West Coast and with global warming, thinning because of beetle damage is the most common reason for large scale cuts in the US and across Canada and it's necessary to prevent spread of Pine Bark Borers and Fir Engraver beetles, which are decimating huge tracts of forest, both old and new. Don't simply assume that trees are ancient or that timber men are evil.

Im sorry but i really dont think you have thought through that comment.

this is one tree. did you see all of the other trees in the background, its called selective cutting, all you think about when people mention cutting trees is clearcutting.

chopping down a big tree like this is like destroying a piece of earth's history. =|

Ya, kind of like digging huge holes in the earth to extract materials or making plastics that NEVER break down. Imagine, trees can be re[planted AND they NATURALLY break down. What a terrible idea to use trees for building materials!

Brad Attfield I was just having this conversation the other day. I wanted to buy a few hundred acres of woods and log them (for using to build my home) under the understanding that sometimes moving older growth trees can make room for 3 or 4 other trees to grow. So use 1 and produce 3, 4 or even more trees sounds pretty enviro-friendly to me.

Look around you. At all the things made of wood! The house you live in. It's like saying I use drugs, but the drug dealer is the real criminal. There are smart ways of logging and preserving our ecosystems! Europe is a great example. They log and take time to make sure the forest grows back healthy! Logging isn't a crime, but careless logging should be!

Brian Blade Yes, whereas you are clearly ignorant on what loggers do. Last week we finished planting trees, we planted over a thousand individual trees, that's more than all the trees all the loggers here cut down in a whole year. In a good bit of Euro countries we cut less than what grows annualy, so lets say annual growth is 5 million hectares, that means we cut down less than that. I am fully aware of what is being done in rainforests, but that isn't the whole logging industry you know.

Great work.. Beautiful film too..

Beautiful, great video.

Foolish dangerous technique. He will suffer an accident sooner than later. Idiot wasted a lot of wood with a bad cut. The moan sound heard when the tree falls is called a Barber Chair mistake. He wasted a lot of good lumber. He should be fired.

If you think anything in the video is called a "Barber Chair", you have "NO IDEA" what you are talking about. As a matter a fact every observation you commented on shows your complete lack of "FALLING" knowledge.

Brad Attfield from Critical Reasoning from Arboriculture textbook definition: One type of falling mishap, know as a barber chair, is particularly dangerous. A barber chair occurs when a tree being felled delaminates vertically before the hinge is cut thin enough to bend. . .. The moaning sound was the central wood fibers delaminating which destroyed a lot of good wood. You do not need to have the complete barber chair effect of a completely split lower trunk with the rest of the tree held up by half of the split trunk. The hinge was cut in the wrong place. The foolishness was his dangerous climbing around on ridiculously dangerous springboard scaffolding. He will be dead sooner than later.

Critical Reasoning I accept people disagreeing with logging or old growth logging but people PRETENDING to have falling knowledge piss me off. What you see is "stump pull" not any form of Barber Chair. Hinge wood is used to control the direction of fall. In some situations more hinge wood is needed to safely control the direction of fall (ie..Heavy leaner, Gusting winds etc...). Fallers try to keep stump pull to a minimum but for safety reason sometimes there is excessive pull . Another thing you don't seem to grasp. I am Falling trees in a forest far from access to any equipment other then what I carry. The spring boards I made and installed were strong, safe, and a accepted method to overcome a Falling difficulty. Just because YOU do not know why I used a "Spring Board " does not mean "I" did not need It.

awesome video but poor tree. i hope they planted one someplace at least.

One person commented, "What do spotted owls smell like" I have a t shirt that says " Save the trees, wipe your ass with an owl". So I'm guessing they smell a little funky from tree hugger usage. Great video and demonstration of skills.

Geezer has absolutely bossed it ... Pirouetting on two little branches .... Quite high up with a fucking chainsaw !

Well done brad, great video of some west coast Vancouver island falling.

that sound is the holding wood. beautiful job!!

Nicely done and fantastic view. Reminds me of Faulkland BC.

love that sound when the tree trunk hits the ground its like a huge thump

The angle of photography makes it look even moore epic.

You sir are a man's man....and I salute you. stay safe out there brother.

Watching him cut this tree I can remember the smell of yellow cedar. It’s amazing I have been around the bush for 20 years

Great cut! Subbed. Make me miss my days in the woods.

That chainsaw sounds like it has more displacement than the dirtbikes I grew up riding. Amazing landscape, and one big ass tree for sure.

nicest background scenery of all time - epic

Cool video and good picture. The start looked like a hollywood movie. Almost thought you were on a green screen or something. What awesome scenery!!
