NEED HELP: My saw's not big enough

There's a big tree down at SWDP and I don't have a saw that can handle it.

Anyone available Saturday morning who could assist? I'll probably also blow the trail and open it for the weekend.

That’s a nice piece of lumber but too big for my saw, sorry.

What size is your saw for context? I have one but thinking mine might now be big enough either

I have an 18 inch blade, but can't make it out there until sometime Sunday afternoon.  If you still need help let me know.

Mine's just a little 14". I'm also not really a chainsaw expert.  Embarrassed

I'm coming down next Thursday and could bring my big Husky if you don't get that large oak by then. I have a 28" bar and chain that would make easy work of that tree. Let me know.

I am working on something over at Dixie in the morning but when I get done I could swing by.  Will shoot you a text if your around and we can get it.  Have another big 1 down at Purser-Hulsey to get too.

No thanks to Zakaraia, the tree has been cleared. Also blew the trail and opened it for riding.

@Tom A: Thanks for the help

@BJE: Thanks for the offer... you should ride Sunday instead!

@BBM: Thanks for offering... are they making snow up there yet?

Yes they are!! We're supposed to open Wednesday, but I'm not working until the week after Thanksgiving. I'm thinking about going skiing on the rope dropping day!!
I hope you got lots of help cutting the tree!!

Miss you guys!

Pat, you should see the tree I've been cutting on. It would take 2 or 3 of me to reach around it. It's a red oak also, and I've hauled 5 or 6 loads back up the mountain to the house. That was last spring and it's time to go back and cut on it some more.

Pat
Glad you got some help  So I took your advice and rode Warrior Creek, which is always fun. Have a good Thanksgiving.
