The Fell & Extract
This is a practical competition to demonstrate the day to day skills of horse logging. This can be a team of a cutter and horse person or a sole operator. This involves felling the designated trees and presenting them for horse extraction to the stacking site. Skills are judged and marked by a team of judges. Anyone taking part must have the relevant chainsaw tickets and insurance.
