Demonstrating prototype logging boom
-
Description
-
8 of 8 of a series of photographs showing unloading logs from a logging truck at Gales Peak Lumbermill. This picture shows two men standing on a log in the millpond. They have just unhooked the grappling hook while a third man steadies the log with a pole. A fourth man is standing by. The boom is off to the left in the picture. In the background is a 1953 or 1954 Ford pickup. This boom, produced by Wallace Dozers in Forest Grove, became the “Heel Boom” known throughout the Northwest for its advantages over older style booms in loading and unloading logging trucks.
