Looks like JM Browning will be on next week, guess the History Channel is stretching it out longer this year and Browning's didn't want to deal with a longer filming deal so they only signed on for a partial year. Hopefully they will ditch some of the other crews as well and put Lake LeMare on as well soon. Looks like they will also be doing the Alaska barging outfit on as well pretty soon.

Pretty sure it's just the crazy chocker setter from JM Browning going to work for Rygaard. Must have missed being on TV.

Just when a person cant hardly stand to watch they do do something great. The barge crew was neat, i like to see stuff like that, it gat me revived in to the show. It helped they did not show that much of the auqa logging, or maybe that was my dvr. Anyways what did you guys think of the barge crew? And when are they going to show browning?

I thought the barge outfit was pretty cool. The best thing was they were telling Dustin how to do what needed done without yelling all the time. And it didn't sound like Morse code when they were explaining to him what to do.

yep liked the barge,that was great to see how that was done.
Is that the one that got new teeth and looked like Woody Harelson ?
Also, Dustin on the barge crew, didn't he work for Pihl ?? I remember his old man was a tree faller for Pihl and was the boozer.

yeah Dustin was was on Phil crew and he was a mouthy little $#@t. And he was sent packing cause he was not getting enough turns to the deck. Then his dad quit because he had his feelings hurt when his son was fired. I hope he learned a lesson about doing what he is told by the guy signing his check. Because if he got fired off the barge it would be a long swim.

Looks like the good old boy Jimmy is not too bright.

I had lunch with my mom yesterday and she was telling me she saw this on a news ticker on Fox. What a freaking moron! A couple weeks ago, he was going off on his kid about being lazy and not wanting to work. Just knock some chick up and let the state pay for it! Isn't that kinda what he was doing? Letting the state pay for him? I hope they throw the book at him.

If ( a big if) Jimmy dad had an 8th grade education and was twice as smart as Jimmy. That would mean Jimmy has a 4th grade education. What a dump son of gun. I cant wait for his next screw up, kind of waiting to watch for a train wreck or a car crash at NASCAR.

Did anyone else think that the scene of the tail hold tree falling looked funny? I replayed on the dvr and I think it was enhanced to look scarier. Not that a tail hold falling over is not bad enough. It just looked funny was wondering if anyone else thought that.
And I am excited about the next week, glad to see Browning and Lake Lemar. Now maybe wee will see some logging and less cat fights.

They had Lemare on a different TV show a couple of years ago, and they broke WCB regs right on camera. Looked like a pretty haywire outfit.

Anybody watch Axmen last night with Lemare? I thought grapple yarding with big Madill's and Cypress's were all the rage up there? Yet they made it seem like they only did carriage work and hardly ever did grapple work. Or is this another instance of Axmen creative editing?

When you are logging uphill without a mobile backspar, you use the carriage. Grapple yarding and rigging trees is a slow painful way to move wood. Its real easy to pull over a tree with a running skyline. Twice as much pull on the backend as a live skyline or any other setup.
