Fantastic video....Informative and educational....Also a time capsule for the days of a strong American. And a tribute to the Men that performed these tasks..with skill and muscle. Such a great era of people and progress in our Country..Said with total Respect to our Nation and our Tradesmen...But this is where we can from. Godspeed and safety to all in this field of work...Past and Present...Much Respect from St Petersburg Florida
@@nobodythatyouknow241 Now that is something I missed but was always curious about. I have never seen a good video about A frame logging. The photos I have see were always impressive.
@@deancj1 Safety makes for complacency. I can't tell you how many chap wearers are constantly knicking their chaps & replacing them every 6 months. I refused chaps for years, 4hen finally settled for inserts due to tightening regs. I've stabbed my quad with my dawg a few times, but I've never severed a single thead of trouser with a spinning chain...
Done choking and A frame choking in Gold River in the 50's. This film brings back memories . Fred
oh man that would have been awesome to see.
This is one of the best explanations of old school highlead logging. I am experienced. Spent nearly 10 years logging like this.
I don't think many people realize, how fit these Legends were. Happy New Year everyone!.
super strong isometric power pulling wrist arm and shoulders . Agile quick strong legs no gym required.
"Not all logging is done in the sunshine" that made me laugh a little.
Ahhh! To be a sunshine logger. 🌞

Men are not made like this any more, very cool footage Boone! Too cool
Huh?
That knot on the climbing rope is called a cats paw.
Just how many of us are left who remember rigging trees, moving sled rigs and only flying two 1-1/4 x 60 chokers?
I had a taste. Cold deck and swing. Also A-framed on the coast.

@@knotbumper I have some footage on VHS tapes. Gonna have to get it digitized.
Depending on how much footage you have on VHS it might be worth buying a DVDirect to convert them over to DVD
