It's "Fall" All Summer in the W.inton Amador Tree Farms!
[r-r- suuturn long the high-pitched whine of r \ chain saws echoes through the vast depths of the Winton Amador Tree Farms. as the fallers systematically haraest their crop before the first snowfall. There's a tpecial urgency to their work because the huge tr€es must be bucked into 32-foot Iengths, limbed and trucked to the sawmills for storage before snow halts work in the higher elevations.
This experienced team of fallers is making a wedge-shaped undercut on the fall side of the tree. Next comes the backcut removal of the wedge and finally the electrifying cry of "Timber-r-!" as the giant comes crashing downl Expert fallers can literally drop one of these huge giants on a dime!
As timber is removed, \Tinton's re-forestation program takes over. Today's seedlings are tomorrow's timber. And \Winton was one of the first lumbering organizations to practice "conteruatiou t/trough use."
The scene above is typical of the many $/inton lumbering operations in California, Oregon and Idaho. These \Tinton folks make the production of top quality lumber their full-time business. And they knotu thetr business I \Vinton lumoer begins with a progressive tree farming program, and the end result is bigh quality, dependablygraded lumber that you can sell with confd,ence!
