Logging Equipment Pictures

[JTL]

I was bored outta my mind last Saturday, so I grabbed a box of 'soda', and my camera and went out looking for some logging jobs. There isnt much going on around here, kinda like everywhere else, but its down to nothing now because of spring break-up and load limits being on all the roads. The State, Forest Circus, and the mills have even closed all the gates on their roads so they dont get tore up. What a crazy winter this has been here in North Idaho. No snow and above average temps!
Anyway heres a few of a local contractors machines that they walked down the hill 4 miles, just to park them next to a county road that they cant haul on because of load limits.:beatsme

Now this picture was sent to me by a friend of mine that lives in Coos Bay, Oregon. Its kinda crappy because it came on the cell phone, but I think that it shows what a bad day they had!

Looks like a TMY-70 Tube. Who's machine was it? If Myrmo & Sons is still going down there they should be able to fix any damage to the yarder/tower/base and mounts.
