Could you shed some light on what products they are hauling, such as plywood, osb board, pine lumber, hardwood or what and where the products are going? Great photo's by the way.

Post 162,1&2 are TIF trucks loaded at Ladysmith Forest Products with processed lumber,2x8 going to one of the lumber docks. Lumber going overseas. Cannot say for sure where 3rd and 4th pictures taken. 5appears to be lumber dock at Duke Point,cargo is wrapped lumber. Most likely kiln dried so it is wrapped as not to get wet

Jeet Sangara , Trans-Isle Freightways . I would say most of the lumber being hauled by these trucks would be Fir or Hemlock and most likely to Deep Sea Docks for Export . The Fork Lifts in Picture 4 are painted BCFP colours , the location is most likely Stewart Channel Wharves at Croften B.C.scan823.jpgscan824.jpgscan825.jpgscan826.jpgscan827.jpg
