Do any of you guys know the purpose of making these cuts in trees? It looks like someone took a chainsaw and cut in about an inch around the circumference of the trees. Almost along the lines of girdling. There are several trees on my daughter's property cut this way.

Looks like classic girdling. Intent is to kill the tree.

Logging. Hook wires around the trees to stabilizer the yarder.
