That is vary true. I dought this one ever did pay for itself. I do however know that there were several built and this just happens to be the biggest. In todays market you are getting between$1500 and $2000 dollers for a truck load of good logs. Imagine how many truck loads would come out of 2500 acres. I know they didnt just leave that timber on the ground!
