Has any one here delimber juniper in large amounts? And what machine did you use? There is a local guy that has used a Timberline ST 3530.  Thanks

Junipers Occidentalis I'm guessing.  Or Western Juniper.  It is averaging  24' in length and 20" butt.  Limbs can be 15" but we deal with 10" and below normally.

What's the market for those logs? 

I brought one baby juniper over from central Oregon when I bought my place, to remind me of home.  My parents moved me over here when I was 8 (long time ago) but over there always feels like home.  That tree is growing pretty well, I just hope it doesn't get some weird root rot from 80" of rain a year.
