Speaking of that cat and why I got my foot under the track, you may or may not find this useful in the field.

KIDS DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!

The reason I was standing too close to a moving cat was to hold a short piece of log up against a good sized tree so the cat could back into it and straighten some steel out that got bent and was in the way of using the winch.

Sometimes you can use the strength of the machine to your advantage but watch your feet.
