Abstract

The tree-length harvesting system using four-wheel drive, rubber-tire skidders is becoming widely accepted for harvesting quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) in northern Minnesota. This study, to determine soil disturbance caused by this system during summer logging, is part of a larger project to evaluate the effect of mechanized harvesting on aspen silviculture.
