Cant quite belive that it is posible for two horses to move, let alone pull the amount of timber on those skids..amazing

I'm reading John Irvine's latest and that's set in logging country, covering a time period covering manual forestry all the way through to mechanisation. Seeing those pic's makes it a lot more graphic

wicked set of shots ! photos back then are so much better than all this modern digital stuff ,! its odd really cos we get to appreciate shots like that of 8 guys standing in a gob made by a handsaw , yet in years to come people will be googling the same and will probably be looking at us lot lunging half naked in a pair of stihl xfit over a silly little twig we felled with an 880 .....lol:lol:

Let it never be said that TPO's & Nat Park status are a bad thing!
