Ax and Yukon man on Sky

I am watching these through my fingers on the sofa. In Yukon they harvest floating logs for fuel and cut them up in the river and tow them home, plenty of splashing! Nine year old helping with big chain saw at home.

 

Little doubt in the wilds of Alaska you do what you have to or it doesn't get done, learning on the job.

 

Winching with thin cables hoping it doesn't bust, dragged a house by putting two tree sized logs under and through the cabin and then rollered it to the location.

 

That's apart from the cruelty whilst hunting, gin traps and all; but the tree work is so dangerous.The logging in Ax is frightening. I guess health and safety is not in the US and I have spent time over there.
