Demonstrating prototype logging boom
Title
Demonstrating prototype logging boom
Description
6 of 8 of a series of photographs showing a prototype boom unloading logs from a logging truck at Gales Peak Lumbermill. In this picture the boom is picking up a log from a J & K Logging Co. logging truck trailer. There is a man sitting on a log at the front of the load on the truck. Two more men are standing to the right of the truck watching the demonstration. 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.
