It seems that the photographers didn't make it up into the hills to much. Not to many pics of the trees being cut down.
Great pics guys, thanks agian.
As a kid my parents took us to the Adirondack museum. I always spent a good amount of time in this building that had old time photos of loggers. Tough way to make a living.
I've downloaded any logging pic posted on this site, I've got quite a slideshow on my computer by now. My brother sat here the other day and checked out the whole thing. Over 500

Ray,
I doubt he's too worried about the passanger seeing where he's going.
We don't get the scale now that they got back then, but we've really got it made compared to how they used to have to do it.
Great pic's guy's, thanks for sharing.

I love these pictures! Does anybody have any pictures from the Black Hills of South Dakota or is the location of these pictures just a guess. The black hills were logged extensively around 1900 and continues to this day, all ponderosa pine.

Unbelievable! Fantastic pics.

What kind of tree could be in the pic "my crew 088"?
Almost looks like a cedar???

Thanks for the great pics.
