Hauling wood on the Golden Road

This is how it used to be done up here...

Real men carry real logs, not pecker poles.

Yes, but all we have for the most part are peckerpoles. Grind it up for paper making. There is some stud grade left but it didn't come down this way. It went to the other end of the Golden Road to Pinkham Lumber in Ashland.

Besides, that is two trailers worth of peckerpoles...:-laf

In NW Washington, Crown Z had a private road out of the woods to Neah Bay and HUGE offroad logging trucks. In the late 70's I hauled gas and diesel out of Port Angeles and made many trips with the Ford cabover 2000 gal rig taking diesel deep into the Olympic Peninsula forest to logging landings. SNOKING

Those Mainers may not have big wood, but they sure carry a LOT of it at a time.

We don't have very many big sticks out here anymore either......heck the newest mill in Aberdeen, WA has a 34" debarker ring.

In other words....that's the biggest log that can go through it. That used to be average.

Yep boys, those Subaru drivers have screwed up everything including the logging! Save the earth, choke an Earth Firster!
