Clearing the log jam


Not the best photo (joggled it!) but you can see from this just how MASSIVE the crane is that they are using to lift the log pile out from around the bridge.


One of the bigger trees being winched out.


Plenty more where that came from . . .


This big old tree, jammed sideways on across the main bridge stanchion did not help matters, and after that arrived, everything piled up against it.


They are very skilled at this - chap was lowered down to attach the chains around the various trees, so that they could be lifted out after the bod with the chainsaw then sawed through them.





Just a few of the trees recovered.
