2008 Tree Planting Video
I just finished editing the 2008 version of the Tree Planting video from my summer job.
Here's a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOBps6I1iaQ
The tree planting and silviculture industry in general is being devastated right now by poor economic conditions. The sub-prime crisis and the low American dollar are contributing to the bankruptcies of a huge number of mills and logging companies in Western Canada, and of course, anyone who plants trees is trying desperately to trim costs if they are still in business. I'm a little bit worried that I might not have any work with my regular company for this coming season, so this might be the last of my annual planting videos. I hope not, but the situation is a bit worrisome right now.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video ...

Wow. Great vid. Reminds me of the best/worst job in the world.
Nothing worse than digging out trucks, swatting flies, and stomping through the rain/snow/mud.
Nothing better than having amazing people to share it with and the sense of accomplishment.
Very cool, mate.
