Some rigging ideas or How to get up THAT ravine!?!
« on: April 03, 2009, 08:33:30 PM »
Here is a rig I used to get some logs (RED OAK) out of a tight spot ,down a ravine, Basically pulling at a right angle on the flat area about 300 feet away with two 20 ton pulleys and 400 feet of cable.......
First a couple of pics bucking fire wood outta the tops, then a double pullet line on pivot tree, and the hitch of the truck...clear as mud right?!?! :D :D Wish I had my lucky green loggin shirt though.......

Get me an address and you will have your shirt. ;D  You also seem to need an ATV arch to get them logs out, without scaring the ground.
