Gutters....Oh ya, I forgot about them things. They don't work here. The snow just rips them off.

Are you sure the logs are "pressure treated"??? Unless you are talking about a method I'm not aware of, it's nasty stuff and will kill you. Might want to check into that too while you are asking questions.

One other thing, building codes don't always work with log home construction and the local inspectors will usually work with experienced builders because some codes just are not possible without bending the rules some.

Good luck Randy.
