Photos of Abandoned Log Yarders

Only the dead and down
Just the rusty and crusty
Simply the broken and tired
Limited to the lame and limping

Here's a great video that I recently found....The history of logging in the Squamish area. Excellent footage of steam donkeys, logging trains and such..

Bone yard of the great ones

Up close and personal

Jackson Bros Logging Truck mounted yarder set-up in the 70's. The photo is from the Peter Jackson collection and the Sechelt online archives...this is from the days when my dad was a faller for them.http://adventuresinmikeslife.blogspot.ca/2012/02/loggingre-posted.html
