Investigation Summary
Employee #1 cut a 18 to 20 in. diameter fir tree that lodged in an adjacent tree. He left the lodged tree as it was and began limbing other trees that had already been felled. But the wind dislodged the lodged tree, which then fell, crushing the employee against a tree on the ground and killing him.
