      @@skadill much appreciated coming from Skadill. Alot more to come. Unfortunately it is costly and time consuming to convert the old film to digitail. So it's a slow process as I'm sure you know all about. There about 18 or more old film reels to go thru,, some right from Washington iron works and some more Trican stuff and a few misalanious vids. Thanks for watch ,, much appreciated. Not sure if many will see them but seemed a waste to let them rot away

    Jervis Inlet is steep ground to log . my uncle had one of those skidders back in the 60's.
    look forward to seeing more.

      Thanks for watching,,,, films were donated by Mr. Tom Brown and Rob Dove. Tom Brown owned crabapple creek logging and later became a salesman for Letourneau in Vancouver. Tom to this day is a true believer in the Letourneau equipment.

    I remember seeing some Letourneau equipment as a kid. Very strange compared to the regular stuff.

    Wow I don’t think there are any other films of the LeT log transporter! Hard to even find pictures of it.

    I think Bob Wood's had a couple of the transporters on Sonora Island in the early 70's
