We used to get it milled, (3”x3”, 3”x4” and 4”x4”) since they had to cut it when clear cutting areas, otherwise they wouldn’t bother with it. However since the mill is no longer fully functioning we can only get poles, still it’s easier than cutting our own. It was the traditional wood for fence posts around here. Lasts for ages!</SPAN></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial', 'sans-serif'">For those folks out there who are interested in Tamarack, also known as Larch, many forestry companies up in northern Ontario cut for pulp. Larger Tamarack logs make good stringers under log camps, I would not be surprised if not better than Cedar which is traditionally used. </SPAN></DIV>

Up north folks typically refer to the Tamarack as Pinett Rouge (sp?), which is also often burned for firewood, mixed with Poplar and Birch.</SPAN></DIV>
