Timber Harvesting magazine Associate Editor Jessica Johnson travels to New Galilee, Pennsylvania to visit Industrial Timber and Pulp. att Sokoloski, 40, admits when he first started out, he had not a single clue about what he was doing. Everything he’s learned about logging has been self-taught, filled with ups and downs and in-betweens. “The first few jobs I did, I got burned on the log prices,” he says. The prices were so bad at first that Sokoloski had nearly convinced himself to quit, that he wasn’t cut out to be a logger. Then it seemed like all the pieces of the puzzle fell into place and two years ago Sokoloski’s business, Industrial Timber and Pulp, based in New Galilee, Pa., hit its stride. “I was happy because I made a couple bucks,” Sokoloski recalls.
