Last Spring we had 40 acres of 15 year old growth commercially cut; the crew just came in one day and cut about 80% of the trees and left them lying on the ground, trees in size of about 1-4'' in diameter.
The result is a jackstraw maze of trees lying on the ground, ranging in height from knee to waist high. There's some bare spots but they're few and far between, and a human can't easily walk through it (I've tried). There is one foot path about 2-3 yards wide running through the middle of it that we intentional kept open so that we could get to the creek.
My question is: will the hounds that the local area hunting club run willingly go into that mess? I know the deer are going into it, so I guess a dog could follow too. Just wondering how often this season a dog is going to get stuck in it and can't get out.
