Commend you guys. Ya All , have some big ones to harvest some big slopes ,and power drifting combines up and down hills WOOSH 😮 Keep up the good work my Freind 🇺🇸🤠
I learned to unload on- the- go when I was real young. That way the combine didn't need to stop cutting. I grew up 30 miles South of Spokane, WA. We had some of those fun hills. Those eyebrows were fun to sled down in the winter.
Didn’t have bank out wagons so how about the truck driver who kept truck under spout-on the fly…moving back and forth to distribute load? Oh yah, rarely was ground smooth, especially fall wheat fields.
It's always amazed me how fast the color of equipment changes once you get into the steep country. Here is east Idaho we have a lot of Deere, but when you get into the hills it quickly becomes red a yellow(Challenger) tractors.
We have steep hills in Scotland and i know from experience that its a lot steeper in a tractor on a hill than it looks when you are lower down looking at it ,been on bits where you put your feet on dash to stop sliding out seat but that stubble will be a bit safer than wet slidy grass
Its awful dry, so not usually in prescott. Fallow rotation for water conservation is the call. In Dayton and walla walla washington, theres garbanzo beans and a lot of dryland peas
@@TrevorStruthers Thanks for the reply I'm retired farmer and enjoy watching harvesters. Your skill on those hills is impressive. In western North Carolina we only farm bottom land it's to steep and rockey . Be safe
Grew up on farm in the Palouse. Nine years old I was the,”Cat-skinner”. Some hills I would have the cat track right on the grain cut the Deere 36B would be at an angle behind me so that only about a 1/3 of the header was cutting grain. No big…everyday business.
Wow, thats crazy. I am a canadian flat prairie operator and we have a couple of big hills. Someday i want to get out that way at harvest and go for a whole afternoon ride. I will bring my own clean underwear and toilet paper just in case.
Out in central state we talk about cab corn or wheat or soybeans. You haven't got a level enough field to test it like we do. It's always over the front of hopper but in your country can be over any side if you ain't careful
Combining it is bad enough but I feel for the guy who sat there all day in a tractor seeding that. Makes our hills look like little piles of dirt by comparison lol. Always thought it would be neat to tour through that area. Washington I assume? From central Saskatchewan here.
@TrevorStruthers oh ya we went to one in our area to look for parts. I'm glad there's someone showing off the hills we deal with. Everyone always harvesting on flat land.
@@nighthawksim6675 If that was true al of the manufacturers would be doing it. Check out the John Deere X9 1100. In corn it will do 7000 bushels per hour, aka 7 trailer loads.
if you ever have trouble with auger on combine just take a hand chisel an hammer ar every foot or so chisel on leading shiney edger hammer small pointey edges on it. you will be amazed.
@@TrevorStruthers im glad i found your youtube channel i always wondered how they farm hillsides. we dont have hillsides like that around here its mostly flat. im in Pennsylvania.
I’m not sure if it’s the case but I ran an fd75 and when I’d get on hills that maxed my leveler my header would shut off because of my header oil was low
Shank Spacing 15 inches. However, they are using a shank that seeds two rows 4 inches apart and then they are on the shanks that are 15 inches apart. It is confusing but I think its like 11 inches.
Glad it's you driving and not me, holy crap No sir, I don't want to do that. I'll be just a small guy here in north Missouri with our little stupid farm with dumb corn and dumb soybeans =p (we have terraces, and hills, but holy shit, do you have more insane hills =p)
I got a buddy from here that moved to joplin with his wife from here in Prescott WA. Poverty grass is what an oklahoma native called wheat once to me. The farms here have to be 3000 acres or better to support a farmer and maybe a hired hand. 2000 acres goes for 4 milliom dollars, but it would take a lifetime to make a dent in that loan
Put your feet on the front window and pray. If you don't roll, it's a good day. Welcome to the country around Dayton, WA. I live in Wallowa County in Oregon and my father calls that oh shit country.
Even some of the dayton guys are scared to drive a combine or a self propelled sprayer in these hills. Some flat out wont do it. Thanks for the comment!
Ive heard of 35 and 50 in the dry stuff. The stuff around the river is always in the 100s because its sub irrigated. The rest is drought affected pretty bad
Near the palouse. SE of it. This is the skyrocket hills in prescott. It has Some of the steepest land thats farmed in north america. If not the steepest.
Jesus effing Christ and I know the video is no where as wild as it really is! Only shit I know that might match this crazy job is the tree haulers that work in mountains.What may I ask do you guys do for thrills
I used to downhill ski race as a child and do this. I lived in detroit for a minute so i could say i did. I do pretty much whatever. I like fast cars, but i dont wanna feature that on my channel. Lol
As someone from Wasco County Oregon I am not impressed by those fields. Yes they are steep but our hills are bigger. Although we have a Case 8240 we still run a 1982 1470. The problem this year there is no wheat to harvest.

Love that country, great job y’all
Really like seeing Palouse country farming.
Where I live
Im gonna throw up if i watch you guys any longer your guys are insane!
You should make a short of the part around 9:19 where he's climbing on the header cleaning it out. Most replayed part, and fascinating to watch!
Wow that’s steep ground to harvest, fair play to the operator, he did a excellent job , brilliant footage 👍
Great Video, 40' on steep hills CRAZY! thanks for sharing

have to the bloke that does mine , ours is not that steep
I remember watching a Film "The Great Harvest of America showing about a dozen Combines working along side each other - Incredible
Enjoyed watching.Wondering if you grow other crops on those hills
Its awful dry, so not usually in prescott. Fallow rotation for water conservation is the call. In Dayton and walla walla washington, theres garbanzo beans and a lot of dryland peas
@@TrevorStruthers Thanks for the reply I'm retired farmer and enjoy watching harvesters. Your skill on those hills is impressive. In western North Carolina we only farm bottom land it's to steep and rockey . Be safe
have you ever seen black and white photos of teams of horses pulling reaper binders on those hills . just found one amazing .
Yeah we had one at our house growing up, the photo that is. Big ol' mule teams used to run out here.
@@TrevorStruthers just put one up today as a symbolic gesture to these amazing people . we have come a long way.
@@dypk-x3n That's awesome! Yeah, there used to be so many more people and animals required to do what one combine does now.
@@TrevorStruthers 👍
Man thats beautiful lots of acres

0:45 That's a great view from your "office"
I love the Palouse, especially when coming and going to see my daughter at WSU
Amazing hills while combining
süper Love that country, great job y’all💯
Thank you for all the comments. Harvest is starting in a few weeks and i will be back cutting wheat.
You don't have to be crazy to do this but, it helps!
Wow, thats crazy.
I am a canadian flat prairie operator and we have a couple of big hills.
Someday i want to get out that way at harvest and go for a whole afternoon ride.

You can do it!
Yall are nutz!

Love a 2388. That one looks like 1999 or 2000.
Trevor, thanks for another video.
Hinged draper heads would be better for some of the uneven ground.
Absolutely, the older one in followinf has its case header thats smaller and doesnt drape. Thats why he buzzed it on that skyline
I just watch if I am over that way. I don’t like that sliding feeling. Happy harvesting!
Combining it is bad enough but I feel for the guy who sat there all day in a tractor seeding that. Makes our hills look like little piles of dirt by comparison lol. Always thought it would be neat to tour through that area. Washington I assume? From central Saskatchewan here.
Same person. Jamie does it all. Spraying, seeding and cutting it!
How do you stop erosion?. I live in Australia and a good rain would destroy those paddocks
We dont get many good rains. We chem fallow with no till to help erosion. It used to erode a lot more. The soils are really fine and erode easily.
Brings back memoeries. My uncle had an older combine for years. But parts got to exspensive so he had to upgrade.
It never ends. Combine’s, and everything else.
@joegotz1971 ya, I mean I don't see why the machine has to get bigger. Why not make a better smaller machine. 😏 for hills.
And hard to find! In my next video you will see a combine graveyard of case 1460’s

What kind of yields do you get in the Palouse? Great footage.
Up to 100 on good years. Bad years more like 40. So 60 to 70 bushels to the acre average where we’re at.
Where in the world is this Rollacoaster Combine harvesting happening ???
Great stuff keep feeding the world and putting it on UA-cam 😊
Palouse
It’s the tail end of the Palouse Hills just outside of Prescott WA
Presume its a Part of Washington called the Palouse?
Eastern Washington. It's about 30 minutes north of Walla Walla
What are the yields in that field? Wheat looks really good.
55 or so id say
I'd like to see them plant it
That is insane!
Must be the Palouse. I believe the hill side was invented for the Palouse.
Prescott Washington, then off to Dayton Washington. Virtually the palouse. A little less gentle hills out here.
Is that wheat no-till seeded? Maybe a hoe drill or cross slot? Tillage on those slopes would have a lot of erosion with washouts.
Hoe style air drill i believe. We got Horsches
Why do you run normal bar tread tires on the 2388 but on the new combines you run diamond tread and which one does better in the hills
I have diamond tread on my 9120 and it works. It slides a bit. I think they both dont work well enough.
Is this wheat in 15 inch rows ? Its amazing they can farm on those hills
Something like that? I don't run the drills.
if you ever have trouble with auger on combine just take a hand chisel an hammer ar every foot or so chisel on leading shiney edger hammer small pointey edges on it. you will be amazed.
Sounds like y’all need to be sponsored by Mountain Dew 😂
Lol. Levi and jmie r into it
Is this hilly land only good for small grain?
We grow peas where theres more rain. Its dry right here
Very impressive! Surprised you can film at the same time! Can’t use auto steer on terrain like that?
Im not sure. Ive never been in a combine with autosteer. Most likely no, it wouldnt work in the hills very well.
Did you ever roll a combine or tractor down the hill
They can slide off hills and yes, thats why my family doesnt farm them anymore. It gets expensive when you lose combines

That happens for sure. Gotta be full up on oil to going side hilling too much with the draper headers. That is true
Case/IH still make sidehill combines?
Hill Co is a dealer addon. They dont come with levellers

That 88 series probably feels safer then the 120. Less weight, less drift.

@@TrevorStruthers You wouldn't get me out on those fields walking let alone driving equipment. I like being alive.
The jd 95h had only like 8to 10 ft headers
I heard we thought the 18 foot headers were too big. They keep getting bigger and we keep using them.
In which country this machine
State of Washington in the USA
Korn Verluste ohne Ende 😂
Just asking where do you farm???
Prescott Washington State
How many bushels an acre? I know you guys are in a drought.
Ive heard of 35 and 50 in the dry stuff. The stuff around the river is always in the 100s because its sub irrigated. The rest is drought affected pretty bad
Qual país é esse
USA, Washington State. Prescott, Washington
OH MY!
Just harvest, you don t help him anyways, seat too comfortable?
Any seat, when sat in for 14 hours, isn't comfortable...
Widder headers seems to have disadvantages on hills
How many hours on the 2388?
Sorry it took so long. Engine 8642 and rotor is 8556
Is your dad or uncle named "George?"
Yes sir George Struthers the 2nd was my dads great uncle and my dad is george iii, well until he changed his name to just George.
Well fair play to you guys, they sure are some stopes, is it in the Palouse ? Hi from the UK.
Near the palouse. SE of it. This is the skyrocket hills in prescott. It has Some of the steepest land thats farmed in north america. If not the steepest.
Prescott washington
Are you guys hiring??
Thats a nice crop ,you didn't say what the yield is. Would like to know. In the touchwood hills i had two neighbors tip their combines. Both lived
It's a bit of a drought so averages are low around the valley. I've heard as low as 3 BU/A and we've had around 55 in most places.
What kind of yield are you getting.
40-100 depending on the water situation
Looking for some work if you guys are hiring!!!
maybe? where you located
@@TrevorStruthers Wisconsin raised on a farm !!
@@TrevorStruthers 80 miles from the twin cities a little north and east!
@@TrevorStruthers I am op n to go
How many acres do you all farm like this?
9000 to cut this season
😮 with two combines?
We got 4.
I would be smoking a lot of weed lolol 🤣 I would love to do that for real 💯✌🏻 hope someone sees my comment and hires me to run a combine 💯✌🏻
I grew up ìn that country on those hills but ran JD95H at 13 loved those times also got to move the trap wagon a1946 ford😅😅.
Yeah those trapwagons are always the scariest to drive. We had a really old ford as well. 40 something i believe.
