Logs arrive in our Construction Yard and are immediately spread out onto log decks and left to air dry naturally. We use winter harvested Engeman Spruce, Lodge-Pole Pine, Douglas Fir and Red Cedar.
Smaller sizes are also available for traditional cabin design.
Once selected, all logs are clean peeled by hand . All outer bark is removed, as well as any trace of the inner cambium layer that exists in the inner depressions of the log. Chiseling the Lateral Groove Logs are then placed in the hands of an experienced Log Builder , who carefully selects each individual log for its own unique application to each home. The correct cut is determined, then full length scribed . Scribing is the process where the contours of the bottom log are duplicated to the underside of the log above.
