[Vegetation Treatment] Skid trail [Description] 
This condition describes a skid trail with vegetation reaching a maximum height of 0.15 m at a 0.1 m spacing. The soil is assumed to be compacted. This treatment would also describe any site mechanically disturbed and compacted --as long as the user estimates the amount of cover--such as landings, forwarder tracks, skyline paths, etc. If the soils remain compacted during the regeneration period, then the user is advised to use the skid trail for the first five years of regeneration, using increasing amounts of cover to describe local conditions. The time required to achieve 100 percent cover may be as short as 2 years in Eastern forests.
