They had a small sawmill and timber processing setup to process felled trees into planks, beams, or speciality wood for furniture makers.
They provided wood to various businesses that were involved in building log cabins, furniture and other wood carving products.
Among those types of business pursuits and job roles that were available, they were given responsibility for land and habitat management, allowing them to do jobs like safe removal of dangerous or storm-damaged trees, plus pruning and woodland management.
Those duties often involved clearing trails to provide a clearing service so that it was safer for mountain hiking, biking or other forms of travel by removing falling trees or clearing vegetation that could obstruct a path or cause an accident if not removed.
Another of their ways of managing the land was to focus on forest thinning and fire prevention by removing excess growth.
