I probably should have clarified that I'm not too concerned with the summer logging itself, but rather the log landing site. The ideal landing location would be my food plot, which is the best draw around during the season. But the more I think about it maybe I could just take an acre out of production on my main field I rent out instead. Then I could keep my food plot and also log as planned if summer logging is my only option. Would you lose more than a year's rent on that acre though? Compaction may impact that for a number of years. Yeah, that's a concern. My soil is pretty sandy so I'm not too concerned about compaction but perhaps I should be.

^. Funny how different logging operators work. Mine did little stock-piling of the wood and would load it out as fast as they de-limbed and cut it to length. Likely never more than two truckloads stock piled and often no double handling as they had enough trucks to keep up with the cutting and delimiting operation.
