Timber harvesting, land clearing, and forestry operations across the Hudson Valley, Catskills, and Tri-State region
Projects photographed by EFP field crews, 2018–2026
These photos document real projects — timber harvests, land clearing operations, equipment transport, and log hauls — across the Hudson Valley and Catskills region. The scale ranges from single-parcel selective harvests on private woodland to multi-machine commercial clearing projects and NYC DEP watershed management operations.
The common thread is the same across all of it: a consulting forester is present before, during, and after the work — not just at the bid stage. That is what certified forestry oversight looks like in practice, and it is what separates EFP from a general tree service or clearing contractor.
Komatsu XT445L feller buncher during a selective timber harvest — Sullivan County, NY. Only marked trees are taken; the surrounding stand is protected.
Working through a dense mixed hardwood stand. The feller buncher lays trees in bunches that minimize damage to the soil and residual stand.
A selective harvest in progress in the Hudson Valley. Equipment access is planned to protect stream buffers and minimize site disturbance.
Feller buncher positioned at a log landing — the central collection point where trees are bucked to log lengths and sorted by species.
Completing a cut on a Sullivan County hardwood site. The remaining canopy closes quickly over selectively harvested stands with good stocking.
Selective harvest — all marked trees identified by a consulting forester before equipment arrives. No unmarked tree is taken.
Forwarder loaded with red oak, hard maple, and black cherry logs at a Westbrookville, NY harvest site — ready for transport to the landing.
TimberPro forwarder on a New York City DEP forest management project in Carmel, NY — forestry under water supply watershed restrictions.
Hand felling on the NYC DEP Carmel, NY project. Hand operations are used where slope, proximity to structures, or terrain prevent mechanical access.
Spruce timber harvest in Millbrook, NY — a plantation softwood harvest producing pulpwood and saw logs from a maturing stand.
Site clearing in Forestburgh, NY — Komatsu excavators clearing second-growth forest for a residential development site. Merchantable timber was recovered before clearing began.
EFP log truck with pup trailer — hauling premium hardwood logs from a Sullivan County harvest to regional mills in New York and Pennsylvania.
Premium hardwood timber from Sparta, NJ — black cherry, red oak, and hard maple destined for hardwood flooring and cabinet mills in the mid-Atlantic region.
Multiple log trucks staged for timber export in the Hudson Valley. Competitive bid sales bring multiple buyers to the property — and significantly higher prices than single-offer deals.
EFP's Timbermatic harvester — a purpose-built forestry machine that fells, delimbs, and bucks trees to precise log lengths in a single pass. Used for softwood and moderate-terrain hardwood operations.
EFP wheeled harvester in transport — headed to a Sullivan County job site. Wheeled machines minimize ground disturbance compared to tracked equipment on suitable terrain.
Komatsu harvester moving through Kingston, NY en route to an Ulster County project site — one of the larger harvesting machines in the EFP equipment fleet.
