Yes he is. He is still living at the same residence in duncan. He hasn't been around though. Took off to ontario a month ago and hasn't returned. Retired life you know i haven't tried to contact him in over a week so he may be back now. Do you know him? If you do you have a chance to get his vids. I know he won't give a copy to just anybody.

Unfortunately I don't know him personally. As most that have spent time in camp and the bush in western of B.C. I know him through west coast falling lore. Manfred at the Shawnigan gate was saying the Lake Cowichan museum loans logging videos, maybe
they have it.

Sorry to get this thread off topic. For what it's worth, I've finally got my 2100 running. I drop start my 394 and my 075, not the 2100 though, it breaks the rope after a few pulls :msp_biggrin: I have to step on that monster.

Nope you are right on topic buddy! Yep my 1100 here give u a nice snap too!

Which video are you looking to get? If you ever got to meet marcel he would probably hook you up just because you worked in the same camp for a bit

Hi Westcoaster,
the one I've been looking for is "A Toast to the Loggers". Did he make others?

Lets just say this. He has a room in his house dedicated to his old logging vids. That should give you an idea of how many he has. Ah hell i'll give you another idea 100's and 100's

I just love the sound of that, A toast to a loggers:msp_thumbup:

Wow, thanks so much for sharing Shane! How old is Marcel these days? He is in Canada you say?

ya he's living in Canada. 3 hour drive from me. I believe he is in his early 70's now but I will have to ask when I talk to him next for an exact age. him and my grandpa are nuts. they are that seasoned and they still climb and top tree's. they still put a lot of the younger fallers to shame

 

[NORMZILLA44]

Outstanding, would love to meet them both. I learned so much rubbing elbows with awesome guy's like that. Was very fortunate. I am glad those guy's still are plugging along!
