Demonstrating prototype logging boom
Title
Demonstrating prototype logging boom
Description
4 of 8 of a series of photographs showing a prototype boom unloading logs from a logging truck at Gales Peak Lumbermill. This picture is a close up of the underside of the boom showing how it can control the log and keep it from swinging. 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.
