    Such an ancient way to be logging. Here in Finland There is only ONE machine in the woods that fell the tree. cut it in size while debranching it and then haul a bunch to the road. All wood trailers have a built in crane so the trucker can just drive next to a pile of wood and load while the logger is still cutting wood in the forrest..

He hauls logs but he doesn’t take his truck in the woods he runs from lay down yards to the mill. Well one day they had a truck shortage and he said the job won’t bad so he used his new Blue Pete to pull a load out. He got loaded pulled off the deck. Was setting down the road bullchitting with coworkers he was out the truck. The road gave way he heard a noise looked back that New Blue Pete was laying on its driver side. He got her all fixed up and that truck don’t go back in the woods no more.
