The way I would like to see it done if I were logging it would be to have you and forester go thru and mark with paint what you want LEFT(makes figureing skid trails and where to fall timber easier) this way at least for me. Then get your bids this way everything is out in the open. Loggers honesty generaly is not a problem around here but their methods of logging make the difference. I would go and look at one of their prior jobs and look at damage to remaining timber and clean up. Clean up is the hard part beings the money has already left so not makeing any money till logging again
