Post your pictures of logging camps, shops, etc. on the West coast of North America!
Now you're just trying to torture me eh??
You know I have no pictures of the camps I worked at save those embedded in my mind.
And I've already proven you can't develop those.
But I'm looking forward to what may turn up and later I'll add some recollections of people and places as they evolve.
Take care and good thread starter.
Trakloader, The photo of the Logging trucks and P/Us and stuff that you posted !!! Well the Yellow HDX in that photo came from down this way. It has a yellow and white door on her. When she was new she was bought by Reg Smyth and after he passed away was sold to Pat Carson Bulldozing and then they were sold to Hayes Forest. Al Burdick got her new and managed to stay on her till he retired and shortly after that she was sold to E&A Her original unit # was 7 then she became T457 under HFS Dont know what her #is now. Also FYI your old H34 is down here now hauling in Sarita owned by Dave Mills Contracting so she has a good home
The picture he posted was of H155 not H55 although it looks like H55 on the bar under the front bumper it is actually H155. This P16 went to Sarita Division new and the second driver to drive that truck put on some white striping on the sides of the hood --you can see it in the picture. The truck you guys call G24 was actually H24 and pulled the lowbed at Cameron Division untill it was stuck under that huge debris trailer that went to Lamar Lake Logging.She was then rebuilt as a conventional truck from her pre-load configuration after she was taken over by Hayes Forest Cant remember her "T" number after that but im sure Kim has a picture of it The front bumper gives her away. When they rebuilt her at their Duncan Shop they filled the front bumper with body filler to make it look good -I dont have to tell you what happened the first time she pushed the low-bed
