Building trails with some awesome tools!
What happens here
With safety gear on and equipment ready, begin felling the marked trees and cutting down brush. Use the appropriate chainsaw for the size of the material – the smaller Echo DCS-2500T for thinner branches and saplings, and the more powerful Milwaukee Fuel for larger trees. Make clean cuts close to the ground to avoid creating trip hazards. Work systematically along the marked trail path, moving cut material aside for chipping.
Goal: Clear the marked trail path of small trees and brush.
