How tough were these guys
When the Northwest logging
industry was still young...
Just look at the length of the
hand saw they needed...
...and look at the size of the
heavy duty axes...
The work required very strong
and courageous men...
After a tree was felled the real
work began - a week or more to cut it up...
Maneuvering the logs down the
mountain to the train was a complex job...
A hollowed out log became the company's mobile office...
Hollowed out logs were also used to house and feed the crews.
Outstanding.
