Wow I can’t believe some of the responses I’ve read in this thread. A chainsaw for camping purposes; seriously? Oh even better; chainsaw and leave no trace used in the same sentence? The saddest part, those responses weren’t jokes they were serious.
I carry an axe, a bowsaw and a small hatchet; I haven’t had the need to use the axe in years. I carry it more out of habit than need. I can’t imagine using a chainsaw for fire building purposes and as far as trail clearing goes; use a winch. If you’re blazing new trail then you’re NOT leaving no trace, if you’re building your fire with wood any thicker than your wrist then you’re probably leaving a trace. I mean really, just how big a fire does it take?
This thread has been very educational for me; not in terms of the information in it, in terms of learning some things about the membership here. Some of these responses really surprised me.
If you're carrying a chainsaw into the wilderness you're probably no Eagle Scout thats for sure. LOL
