Cut-to-length logging is the process of felling, delimbing, bucking, and sorting (pulpwood, sawlog, etc.) at the stump area, leaving limbs and tops in the forest. Mechanical harvesters fell the tree, delimb, and buck it, and place the resulting logs in bunks to be brought to the landing by a skidder or forwarder. This method is routinely ...
Cut-to-length logging (CTL) is a mechanized harvesting system in which trees are delimbed and cut to length directly at the stump. [1] CTL is typically a two-man, two-machine operation with a harvester felling, delimbing, and bucking trees and a forwarder transporting the logs from the felling to a landing area close to a road accessible by ...
Salvage logging is the practice of logging trees in forest areas that have been damaged by wildfire, flood, severe wind, disease, insect infestation, or other natural disturbance in order to recover economic value that would otherwise be lost.
When boards are cut from a log, they are usually rip cut along the length (axis) of the log. This can be done in three ways: plain-sawing (most common, also known as flat-sawn, bastard-sawn, through and through, and tangent-sawn), quarter-sawing (less common), or rift sawing (rare).
Skidding (circa 1900). In mining, quarrying, and forestry, skidding mainly concerned the usual transport of felled or cut material (wood, logs, stone) or extracted material (ores), sometimes cut to size (squared ashlar), to the road, track, river or top of the slope which, from the loader or loading point, enabled it to be transported onwards.

Clearcutting, clearfelling or clearcut logging is a forestry/logging practice in which most or all trees in an area are uniformly cut down. Along with shelterwood and seed tree harvests , it is used by foresters to create certain types of forest ecosystems and to promote select species [ 1 ] that require an abundance of sunlight or grow in ...
Log splitting is the act of splitting firewood from logs that have been pre-cut into sections (rounds, bolts, billets [3]). This can be done by hand, using an axe or maul, or by using a mechanical log splitter. [4] When splitting a log by hand, it is best to aim for the cracks (called checks), if there are any visible. [5]
