Good looking iron, nice big landing. But, if you can handle the wood with a processor and chokers 3/4 or smaller, it is not big wood. Big timber requires 1"x 60' or 1-1/4" x 60' chokers to be considered big timber. Big timber requires no more than two chokers on the rigging and the yarder struggling.
You have a interesting but?? On rigging 4big logs. All about lift a half inch snare is rated 18.000 lbs. 2000 board ft of Doug fir weigh on average 15 to 16 thousand pounds. A 2000 board ft log well 40ft long 34 inch on scale end nice log 40 x40 log fir 22-24000lbs 3/4 chokers big logs big Dawgs
@@willhahn4188 A 10' log (yellow fir) will weigh something around 150,000 pounds and have a circumference of 32 feet. That is why you need the rigging I mention. A 34" long is a nice medium size log, but it does not qualify as "big wood." I pulled rigging on settings like that, I also pulled rigging on setting where you used 5/8 x 10' chokers, 16 of them at a time., (4 per 70' tong lines off of a shotgun carriage.) that was small wood.

You should get a grapple yarder there way better and efficient
Sure, if you have a swing yarder, and a moving tail hold of some sort, which in steep ground with limited roads isn't going to happen.
Not always
Ruff looking wood
Indeed....we started in the junk to get to the goodie.
Very good 👍
Cook can move all big towers and dozers from chehalis wa state wide hauling 13 axle lowboys
Some of the fir logs have so many stobs that they'll make good firewood, anyway.
Someday in the future past.

Amen!
So if “Big” timber requires no MORE than 2 chokers,then how would you describe timber with 3 chokers?
