On standing trees such as this Tulip Poplar, an ax offers longer reach when peeling bark for containers. Once girdled for management purposes, the tree will die standing. You can come back next year to harvest the dry wood and bark for fire craft resources.

Thanks for watching, and, as always, keep Doing the Stuff of Self-Reliance!
