Find a local reputable forester to walk the woods and develop a management plan. If a timber harvest is what is needed to achieve your desired results then have the timber marked and put out for bids. This will insure that you are getting the best price.

If you had a timber inventory/basis established around the time you acquired the property then there are ways you can sell the timber without the high tax liability.
