log pulling

By Brent Mundy Ranked #208 - Climbing Ropes and Bouldering Pads June 25, 2009

I needed a way to get a bunch of dead trees off a steep hillside, I watch ax men, but I don't have a yarder. I do have a skid steer and a big pully though. I just needed rope, and this statik rope works awsome. Hooked one end to the fallen tree, through a pully up in a tree across an access trail, and the other end to the bobcat. Give her a nasty amount of pulling and this rope held great.. The trees draged up the hill with almost no effort. There was very little damage to the rope after pulling 50 one hundered and twenty tall trees, in 8-60ft pieces. The pully broke but the rope held up great.. P.S. I also used a 25ft piece to tow a minivan 4 miles, no prob!!! Thanks, Brent
