Love the Logging history! Last year I traveled down to Shasta County where I grew up in the 60s. Stopped at a yard sale. Bought a old Double bit axe from a old timer in his 80s. Got to talking. He was a Faller in the 1950s up in Oregon. Even then he said it was still primarily Axes and Two man Saws! Chainsaws didn’t get much action til the 60s
Thank you for sharing this with us. I love hearing stories from the people who were there. I was very fortunate in my life to be able to listen to a good many of the old timers tell about how it was. I try to spread that information to the younger generation to keep the knowledge alive.
Very interesting. I've read all the plaques along the river bike paths and this helps put the story into context
listened to my dad and uncles talk about the river drives they were in
Driving logs from Westfir to Harrisburgh had to be crazy trip.
I fought in the ring and worked in the woods for most of my life but I was about half as tough as these animals were. Luca
I’d read your autobiography 👍
Loved the story and photos! Thanks phor sharing!
My grandfather worked in the woods in the winter and farmed in the summer but we don't have many stories about his experiences only my father's about when he came home
Was born in Glens Falls, New York. It was a logging town too. They'd sent logs down the Hudson by the mile. The remnants of the boom and the cribs are all still there.
I bet you there’s still quite a few logs submerged in the river.
Thanks for this video.
Hard times and harder men!
Superbes photos , à montrer aux jeunes pour leur faire comprendre la vie des pionniers qui ont fait l'Amérique d'aujourd'hui !
good stuff
The reason that between 1850 and 1950… we lost 90% of old growth forests…..
hopefully they made some decent money
🙏
When men were steel and ships were wood... Now we've got steel ships and gender neutral they thems.
Sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know of a way to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly lost my password. I love any help you can give me
@Rylan Decker instablaster =)
you couldn't find a group of thin men like that today, all of them would have big fat guts.
Didn't see any obese people there!
Back when men were men..
