The trees will keep growing back, this is how modern wood production works in the developed world (unlike Brazil) - they basically farm the trees, not just cut them and run away.
Anyway, the tree logs will get stuck in corners, kill animals, what not - doesn't matter. It will eventually get to the arctic ocean and just float there or get stuck into the ice. They will start decomposing and their matter will slowly sink into the bottom of the ocean, and in a billion years will turn into coal or petroleum or something.
The only problem I see with this, is that if you do this enough times, you will deplete the forest lands out of minerals needed for plant growth. But would that happen that fast?
