hi guys. I'e started a new playthrough and I am in my first year. i upgraded my axe to gold at the end of summer and retrieved it from the blacksmith on the 1st of fall. i had big logs on my farm that my silver axe couldn't clear. when i went back to the area where the logs were on my farm with my gold axe in hand, the logs were gone.. literally all the large stumps and logs were gone. is it a thing where these logs disappear in fall?
also, can I be reminded of how to open the deep forest? in spring sometime (I think after completing the spring offering) i had the dream where the log and flower barricades were lit up by cherry blossoms. but still the barricades are up and i am unable to enter the deep forest to farm hardwood there. literally got enough hardwood to upgrade one tool to gold from clearing that one log between the mines and ben's caravan that leads north along the river.
any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
