My father stumbled across this video the day before last, as it was in his recommended videos after searching the name of his fathers old boss, Wallingford. As he passed before I was born I never met my grandfather Eugene Caron, the discovery of this video is huge to me, as no one in our family knew there was video of my grandfather. I’ve only ever seen him in pictures until today. This is truly astonishing!
Thank you for all of this video footage!! My wife and I purchased a house near Katahdin, and I'm studying Bob Geller's book of logging in that region. This footage has put a visual to the process that it took to get the logs into the waterways. Utterly fascinating!
When this documentary was made in1992 i was 23 and cutting 4 foot pulp and logs on my property here in northern Vermont. They don't buy softwood pulp anymore.

Thanks so much for this historic footage. And how truly wonderful that you've discovered footage of your grandfather.
It’s great that you can see your grandfather!
Nice to see some history of a place I visit often, hiking and ATVing.
Pretty amazing historical footage!! very kind of you guys to upload this. Thanks for sharing.
Shout out to my Gramps who introduced me to the woods . First planting trees , cutting cord and fire wood then logs .
This is truly amazing to stumble on that video of our father in the 50". This is a keeper for sure.
Reminds me of yarding wood with cattle growing up
This is so comforting to listen to.

Those frozen birch logs would be quite dangerous to handle with them tongs. You wouldn’t have a man on the truck nowadays.
