+summary: >
+  F2P woodcutting on the verified F2P tree ladder — Tree (1), Oak (15),
+  Willow (30), Yew (60) — anchored at bankside Draynor Village willows
+  for sustained XP with logs banked and sold at the GE (yew logs are the
+  top F2P income per log). Maple (45) and Magic (75) trees are members
+  content; there is no choppable pine tree in OSRS (pines are scenery
+  only) — both verified from the wiki, see the handoff note.

+  techniques:
+    - name: chop bankside trees (Draynor Village)

+    - name: bank logs, don't drop
+      why: "logs are F2P-tradeable income: live sell prices 2026-08-27 — willow 21, yew 112 per log (GE limit 15k / 12k per 4h); a 28-log inventory of willows banks ~590 gp"

+    - name: tier progression for XP
+      why: "per-log XP (wiki infoboxes): Tree 25, Oak 37.5, Willow 67.5, Yew 175 — stay at the highest unlocked F2P tier; Willow (30) is the practical XP/hr tier, Yew (60) the income tier"
