Saw the show last night. Lot's of second growth timber and some alder over on the North Oregon Coast mountain range. Also some very steep ground.

Only one big machine outfit there, the guy who has the hook for a hand. That seems like a good outfit. Nice job rigging up with the Bell Long Ranger helo, I was surprised they didn't have an electric hook underneath to drop the load when it got hung up. Typical logger. I'll have to check with Dad to see if he knows those guys.

What I hate about the first show are the over-edited sequences to show bad things happening and excitement. You don't need fancy editing to have life critical excitement on a logging operation.
