Well, there are skidding tongs, & loading tongs. I would be scared to load with skidding tongs.

How you unloading that trlr? Ever think of putting some donnage under the logs so one can get forks under them?

Elk habitat is good.

Elk tenderloin is better.

the mill that they went to has a tiny little modified ford loader that can pick em off one by one or grab maybe 4-5 logs at one time of that size, fenders are not an issue with these guys, thought about throwing something under em but then that's more work, and when the scale house closes at one pm on a Saturday and its 45 minutes to an hour each way, and 45 minutes to load IF everything goes well, don't leave much time for dinking around with four by fours,

That is damn handy because yrs ago I had to do that because the mill had a grapple machine to unload.

No place to rig a block so we rolled PP onto the trlr with the team. Had a little dip to put the trlr in so only had to ramp the 2 top tiers.

Rubbish small diameter timber I cut last June at the wasteland. Now that its seasoned in the bush over summer, forwarded and piled on the roadside. Waiting for a chipper.

I'm just curious to hear which words the operator may pick for describing the stuff after it's gone through his blades... That job ate chain loops for breakfast and lunch and dinner too.
