Thanks to Utube, or dum cell phones. Later was fabulous
Great video Boonie! The good old days for sure. Very impressive to see the whole thing.
Over a mile out. Two spools on the landing. How long to get that strung out their huh?
Thanks Scott.
Really cool old footage. I was sitting here in my 91 kenworth watching this in the turn around waiting to get loaded, I guess these lo bastard were new at some point! 😆 🤣
haha you got that right Steve. where you hauling at these days ?
Gilchrist oregon. 48 miles south of Bend. Down here in the snow.
Thank you for sharing this.. EPIC area and times... instantly takes me back, all the sounds and smells. Whistles and waterbreaks, and the long hike out
The Good Ol Days 👍
Glad you enjoyed it Gary. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment !
Daniel that’s a heck of a video! It’s too bad a fella couldn’t go back in time with the current digital technology. But the cool part is others have to watch videos, we got to live it!
i completely agree. such a cool time to be logging .
Now that’s some high lead logging 👍🏻
Triple drum Shot gunning, maybe North bending
I think at about this time frame i was with my dad in his long logger up cinnabar thru "hole in the wall" out of Morton/ Pe Ell. Same kinda mntn goat country. All export headed to port Tacoma. Epic flashback! Thanks
Thank you for watching 😄 I’m glad you like this .
Brings back memories, Pat and Gary were good people,
I have a lot of pictures when I worked for Pat, a lot more memories, just five years, I was on the last job the Big tower did in Washington, most of Pats crew follow the order up to icy Bay and worked up there till Pat had another job for us
@@stevegloor6248 my dad stuck it out till the auction. Worked for Ben from 1970 till the auction in what like 1992 or 93? Went from driving short logger (#74) to the long logger (#94) and was snap truck for "porky" & RC when moving the "big side".
Right on, I could go on for a week about the good times and the crazy times, I didn't know they had a hole in the wall over there but it makes sense my friends dad blasted the whole in the wall over here, Hunger my to the A road and he came from over there, he told me he worked for eighty different outfits in one year,!!!
I kept going for fifteen years or so after I broke my back in three places then at 50 I got both knees replaced and went another year, but I couldn't keep up anymore, looking forward to retirement!!!
Little trivia on this job. If you notice I was shortened up more than other trucks. My idea was trailer was 2 feet farther up in bad corner, thus giving a less of a chance to spin out. We drivers debated this concept for a few days, with only Wendell the shovel driver agreeing with me. Dale may have come around, not sure about JR🫣, but I do know this….that skidder was behind me the least amount of time. Sorry Dale😊. But, JR was ALWAYS packing more weight than us, he just couldn’t help himself….
😅
😂
Pretty cool to see some old footage of you Dennis. Hope your doing well!
Absolutely correct. With all that extra driving a shorter wheelbase is ideal. Hauling camprun hight and weight doesn't matter
I know getting the weight over the drives sure dose help. You had that ol truck pretty high up front!
Thank you for the great historical video, loved every minute of it, the last time I saw junior Winters was in the 1960's when he had the Union 76 station in Hoodsport Wn. I remember seeing Emery Winter sr. And Eugene Winters stop by the 76 station. It was the only place in downtown Hoodsport where you get a bottle of pop for a dime.
Wow, very cool. Thank you for relaxing the awesome memories. I appreciate you watching Nicholas. Do you
Still live in mason county ?
July 1962 fresh out of high school riding the crummy morning and night out of Montesano. Most of our rigging crew was just out of high school. We were setting chokers out of Camp Grisdale, our yarder was a original steam donkey convert to run on diesel set on two big logs. At the time the Army was ruining war games in the area, and one day a soldier came out of the woods and asked to join us, he set his pack and rifle down and went to hooking up the chokers after about a hour we turned around and he was gone. If anyone remembers the Columbus day storm, that convinced me to quit logging and enter the military.
What a cool Story ,thank you for sharing that with us Edwin. where are you living these days ?
Great vid,I used to work for an outfit that had 2 of those Lorain 60 c hydra kings,monster shovels,50 ft boom if I remember.Keep em coming Mr. Boone..
Wow what was the name of the company ? Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
@@DanielBoonesloggingvideos Gene Pollman logging co.
Gene Pollman logging co.
From Washington, all about getting wood,his tail gate said "log it or let it rot."
I worked for him in Medford Oregon area. Had 2FMC skidders and d7-f and angle blade d6 10k.Psy 200 swing and GT-3.and a bu Skagit parked for long jobs
I remember riding in the truck as a little kid with my dad on quite a few jobs that North Fork Timber had in the high country on some steep roads, trucks getting pulled away from the landing and down the spur. Good times. They don’t do it like they used to..
Boy we sure don't do it like we used to, that's cuz these forester kids don't have a clue on how to log efficiently or effectively and they're awful damn free with spending a contractor's money making them buy the latest greatest newest Glam gear not to mention you can't get any kids off the goddamn couch to go put boots on and step out in the rain or snow or 90° weather. That's the reason it's not done like we used to anymore
This is awesome! Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching ! I love putting em out .
really cool!!
I wonder if this was a Simpson company logging side, and if so, wonder who's it was. As my uncle Gerald : Gerry : Burger was my uncle, and know he worked for Simpson for a very long time, and still can remember some of the fire wood cutting parties, up on a tower side, with beautiful buck skin old growth fir logs, and only the cream was cut. They would cut a block off, and after getting the block split in half, and if they couldn't split the rest up with an axe, throw that log to the side, and Gerald would fire up the shovel, and set up another one. Man, can still remember the smell of that old growth buck skin wood. And with alot of the ones he would get for cutting up fire wood, being knot free and straight as an arrow log. If you wanted a fence rail 60 feet long, you so could.. The good ole days that people who were around and seen it will always remember, but anyone that has not seen that type of logging and wood, will never ever know, only by hearing, reading, and pictures. To bad.
No. Gypo. Handly and Phillips
I knew Gerry well. Hell of a side rod. Govey was our best time in life
Im 54 these were my glory days i did get to log in the late 80s early 90s one outfit i worked for that was highball B&C Logging out of sumner Washington they had 4 sides one that stands out in my mind is papa joes 110 foot washington with a turbo charged V10 this beast had 10 guidelines 1 1/8 mainline stretched out a mile bowman skycar pre setting electric chokers 3 guys on the landing 6 choker men hook tender and pimp1500 year old overrip timber 45 loads a day Biggestvlog was 36ft 10ft at the Butt lots of 4 and 5 log loads this waa in the Greenwater Watershed Enumclaw Washington God Bless The American Logger no Tougher Dedicated Family Man....TRUMP 2024 🇺🇲
That’s awesome . Thank you for
Taking the time to share this with us. What a cool time, too bad I was born 20 years too late to see this .
Great video I loved it
Thank you for watching James , I’m glad you like it .
Well worth the time 🤠
I was 5 when this was filmed lol cool video
Same here buddy. What’s your birthday month ? I’m January 13th
@@DanielBoonesloggingvideos it’s today🤣🤣🤣
Cool ! Happy birthday Pete
That load is hard on a truck with only five axles
Very cool video. Was this up above wynochee lake area or up above govey some place. Grew up running up there. Don't remember where they logged last.
it was somewhere above Govey. I believe this is part of the helicopter sale that was on the forest service lease to simpson but i can't remember for sure, i'd imagine someone will correct me if this is wrong.
Dennis looks so young! 31 years goes fast, hell I was only 13 years old in July 1991, probably up Black Creek gettin yelled at by Terry Adams and Jack Latherow in between trips riding shotgun in my dad's Pete.
Where is black creek at ? How long did your dad have the Peterbilt ?
@@DanielBoonesloggingvideos off the Wynoochee south of the Matlock area. Weyerhaeuser ground. He was a company driver off and on along with owning his truck from ‘74 to ‘02. A lot of Port Blakely work.
@@govtfunded gotcha !
R.I.P. Jack......
The good old days, shot gun yarding at its best there.
I was driving for Pat Rabey Trucking in 91 hauling for Pete Rabey eho loged for Simpson'
I bet you saw some neat stuff up there. Which side of the mountain were you working on ?
why were they logging such difficult terrain ? was it the quality of timber?
yes , it was a forest service lease that simpson had , it was ending soon and they wanted to get the wood harvested. I think this may have been slated to be a helicopter sale. hopefully if im wrong someone will correct me .
Who would wanna log like that? 😂
😜
Whats there today??
tree's
I worked in the woods some( setting chokers,bumping knots) but mostly drove truck, and on a good day there wasn't a better job.
good ole days. rather see the forest being logged than burned up like you see now. cut a tree, save a forest.
yup same here Doug ! rather see it logged. have a great thanksgiving !
Ya utube could Do BETTER WITHOUT GMAIL OR ESPECIALLY MSN❗️❗️❗️❗️
These loads must not have hit the pavement cause they look to be well overweight..
You are correct Travis . They went to a train car reload where the timber made its way to mill 3 in Shelton. Where abouts are you from ? Does your dad still drive log truck ?
@@DanielBoonesloggingvideos I grew up in Tacoma/Graham. My dad lost his battle with cancer 2 years ago but he hauled logs for 40+ years up until about 6 months before he passed. Way back in the day he worked for Talmo, Cowlitz Stud, Eddy Sawyer, North Fork Timber to name a few. Before he passed he was driving for Jeff Bartlett.
@@DanielBoonesloggingvideos I see you have a few videos in New Zealand. Were you actually working there? I worked there for a while with A-1 Timber before we went to Kodiak, AK. Both places were pretty cool.
wow, I am so sorry for your loss Travis. I've worked around the Bartlett guys in the past. seemed like a solid outfit. Thats cool your dad tramped around a little bit.
yeah I worked for the same company in Australia and when they moved the operation to new zealand I went down and worked for them for 9 months in the north island. Where were you working over there ? And also is it the A-1 timber from yam hill or washington ? I'm pretty sure there are two different A-1 logging companies or maybe im off my nut.
