You are a brute of a man, I am now 68 years old and can no longer keep up with you, dont know if I could have ever kept up with yuu, I have much respect for a man like you that works hard and respect others, trying to do the same, provide for their family, Be careful out there and may the good Lord Bless you,

Right on! I'm in northern cali it's 10 bucks a cord and you can stock pile as much as you need and we have 3 different areas to cut on I'm currently cutting in the high desert cutting mountain mahogany and western juniper in about 8 inches of snow with a dodge ram 1500 watching your videos makes me want to start a KZbin channel I'm native so I do a lot of hunting and I sell firewood for a living to wouldn't change it for the world I've been doing it since straight out of high school im 23 now I'd be a fool to try and work somewhere else although I do help my dad with his roofing jobs lol

[@cfladrow]

David, I love your lifestyle, it’s pretty much the same as mine. I’m going on 70 yrs now and still cut my personal wood. The drive in reminded me so much of my home country here in central Oregon. Keep it up and stay happy and healthy.

Had the same truck many years ago!! I called my Ford the "Green Bean" and loved it! I sold it and bought a new Ford!! Big mistake! Keep up the training of your young ones! I did the same and now my children are your age and they REALLY appreciated me passing the knowledge down!

[@rolandpinette9946]

Nice job focusing on the positive things you do, David! I think it's really cool that you and Richard will be passing on traditional skills to students. We should be doing more of that in schools across the US. It saddens me to think that so many of the skills my grandparents needed to survive 100 years ago, have been lost. Hunting, trapping, fishing, canning, growing/raising food, etc were a way of life in our recent history but, today, most people wouldn't have a clue how to get started. That's what makes your channel attractive to people who value self-sufficiency and independence. Have a blessed day!

Great video and glad to hear that you are working to keep the traditions alive.

Keep up the good work and may God bless you and your family.

Love the new Truck!

[@KemptonHewitt]

just like the way you are out there in a used truck with a saw, axe and maul. That gets right down to making a way of life out of labor and ambition. Good for you. If you're going to mess around in snow and some mud with that F250 I gently suggest you find a good small garage that does specialty work and have them put in an air front diff locker. You are using mostly 3Wheel drive otherwise. You want to lock up and make sure that all four are working when you NEED all four.

[@captndavie]

Just found your channel about a week ago. Been watching a lot of your videos. Really enjoying them so far. Don't listen to the haters or take them to heart. Keep on keepin on!

[@captndavie]

Been to a fire out your way several years back. Camp was set up in the fairgrounds there in Omak. The fire was out by Omak Lake. Do they still do the horse race down the big hill into the river? It sure it pretty country out there. Correction, it was 2001 and was the Virginia Lake Complex and I believe it was the St Mary's fire we were on. Or at least a fire that we were on. I believe we went to a couple different ones while on the complex.

Nice looking load of firewood there! Tamarack? That stuff sure does split easy! My cousin is married to a Quinault girl and they take me out on the rez to cut fire wood occasionally. Mostly fir and some hemlock. Every once in a while we'll find a dry one, but most of it needs to cure for a year before I burn it. Those standing dead ones you cut look bone dry. Enjoy watching you work for a living. Good, honest hard work! Tell your boy congrats on that big muley he shot! That was a monster deer!

[@oldscout2514]

I use to cut wood & split it. Burning natural gas is as cheap, if you have to buy wood. I really enjoyed splitting wood, get some good dry oak. Splits easy, get in a rhythm, boom, boom, boom. Split a bunch in nothing flat. Nothing wrong with burning wood, it’s hard work, if you can do it. I’d hate to have to depend on someone to cut, my own wood.

[@mountainlifewithdavidkelsie]

Yes I agree there are cheaper ways unless you cut your own wood… but man oh man there is not a heat source in this world that warms the bones like a good hot fire! We don’t have any hardwoods in my are just all conifers… Douglas fir and tamarack burn pretty hot… it’s not hard work at all well I guess because I love getting a sweat on and love cutting wood… take care my friend stay safe and warm thanks for the support we greatly appreciate it

Thanks bill for the kind comment! Yeah folks seem to wait till they are out to order wood like I have some giant stock pile or I can jump and go get some that moment…. I always make sure they stay warm tho… I seem to pull wood out of my own stack weekly to keep folks warm for a few days until I can cut them a load… having respect and common curtesy for others is how I was raised I try to teach and pass that along to whoever I can
