| I don't think the article provides an accurate description to draw a conclusion either way regarding if it was clear cut or just gladed out. The article only states the cutting was sixty feet wide. I suspect the number is exaggerated. If it is a clear cut, I find it really hard to believe two people could clear that much acreage. They would almost certainly have needed powder tools and assistance moving fallen trees. If this truly is accurately report as a clear cut sixty foot wide swath that runs 3/4 a mile long, these guys should get the book thrown at them. That is beyond reckless. |
