The company I worked for didn't follow standard lumber prices. They set their own, so they never faced the ups and downs and we kept working steady. BC's pine and spruce is superior to White pine for their product as it kiln dries better. The beetle kill from 10 years ago wiped out much of the pine trees so the allowable cut dropped for 10 years. That will end soon. Building will increase soon and your trees will increase in value big time. Your in for a nice windfall.

Your in for a nice windfall.

That would be nice. Property taxes are currently around $4k/year, so chop about $40k off that windfall ... then the taxes on the profit and maybe I'll still have enough to pay the next 10 years of taxes.
