  • Kenny's Loggin – The Rigging Slinger

    The rigging slinger was the guy who directed the rigging with the aid of remote control radio signals. He was in charge of hooking up the logs and sending them to the landing. It was a higher paying job than setting chokers; although that’s what you did along with the choker men. If you were flying two chokers, the choker man had the back choker and rigging slinger had the front. If you were flying three chokers, you usually had an additional choker man.

  • A Trucker's Tale – Bobtailing

    Education is a wonderful concept, and one that allows us to decide which methods we use to gain knowledge.  We can be taught by an instructor, or by using instructions.  We can read about the subjects we want to learn. We can watch other people perform certain tasks, and then mimic their actions.  For some of us though, our education comes, all too frequently, by using trial and error methods.  Sadly, often, these trials end in error.
