Suspenders-

[Sport Faller]

It wasn't too bad when I was there...about 1978 if I remember right.

When I get back to that part of the country I'll make 120 mile trip north. You buying lunch?

I'll bring the bottle!

Just watched the Hazard Tree vid, bad, bad so bad ! only one hazard on that site.....
I wear braces or use belt depends on the trousers really.

 

[floyd]

Do you wear a pad on your shoulder? Kind of hard to keep it on your shoulder without braces.

 

[madhatte]

I keep my shoulder pad, my first aid kit, and my earplugs on my Camelbak. It goes under my cruiser's vest, over my line gear, or is worn alone when I'm cutting. I always, ALWAYS carry water.

Hey Bob, Ol Whitefish is our equivalent of your LA or San Fran. . . Ain't many good folks left up there -- they been run off by carrot eating, bunny hugging, sweater wearin', grubby hippies.

Kalispell ain't the same as 30 years ago, but it still ain't no Whitefish. Also, don't admit you have a friend up Pinkham Creek, or Hungry Horse.

Nate...Them's fightning words!

Down under these are braces

And these are suspenders

None of belt guys use a "gunbelt"? In other words, a second belt dedicated for heavy equipment? There´s a beltbag with wallet, keys etc. on my pant-belt all the time, but it´s light. For other purposes (no matter if cutting or wearing a knife, binocle, 1-2 cameras), I wear a second belt. it sits below the pant-belt on hips and realy don´t pull throusers down. Well, maybe it´s so good only for slender people, but it works surprisingly well. Having a break or call of nature? Just put dowm the belt, you can hang it on tree or whatever, so you´re free instantly and equipment do not run down the slope. I got used to pick up my "work knife", which has some "adds" to it (so about 2,5-3 lbs, differs from day to day) on almost daily basis even in town. And a gunbelt for this-what a pleasure.

You're safe Carl. . . Star Meadows ain't part of Wfish as far as most are concerned.

Got a new motor in the Chevy while I was working out of town. . . I'm gonna come up and visit ya!

OK - in another thread, someone was making a distinction between "loggers' suspenders" and "fallers' suspenders", suggesting that someone was pretentious for wearing the wrong kind. Can anyone describe how these are different?

Thanks

Philbert

Yeah, star meadows is a far cry from Central Ave.

HA HA!! I do have friend that lives up Pinkham Creek, and I used to live in Rexford!!

Watch this video. Especially toward the last. I can't think of a better reason to wear suspenders. It features our very own multi-talented HBRN. Please...don't let this happen to you.

Better to be thought of as a poser than to post a vid and prove it.

Awesome!!

I love that area, from there to the Frostback's border. Lots of good hiking and hunting.

And you get the Pinkham Creek joke.

A friend from Pinkham or the Yaak is OK, but when you're like " yuuup, Pinkham Crick?, got me a aint, 2 uncles and bout 6 cousins up thataway"

it's like being from Eureka and having the last name Pluid or being a Fletcher from Libby :msp_biggrin:

Come on! Next week won't be too good as we'll be out of the cabin for a week (tent camping) while the floor is redone. Week after that works great. Sometime we'll have a Montana Suspender GTG. :msp_rolleyes:

Fond memories of The Dirty Shame Bar up the Yaak way back in time. My other favorite bar back in the 1970's was the Babb Bar on the Blackfoot reservation. Both were classics!
