A horse and winter are a good combination in terms of the well-being of the forest. The icy ground protects the roots of the trees, and the passage of a horse in the forest does not damage the soil. A horse can also travel through a denser forest than a machine, so when working with a horse there is no need for clearcutting.

"I find these rather rare breeds interesting. They are worth treasuring and as cold-blood horses they are calm, easy to handle, friendly and versatile in use."
