Sawing down trees in Winter [01] Item Info

Title:
Sawing down trees in Winter [01]
Date Created (ISO Standard):
1943-01-27
Description:
Looking across the saw pit at the level of the snow neither man is visible. This is dangerous business because in winter it is necessary for skidding and loading crews to work close to the saws. Should a crew move up behind the sawyers and not hear their cry of 'Timber' in time to clear out of the way it means some smashed equipment and quite likely a serious accident to one or more men.'
