Here are two construction methods in the old ghost town of Whitney, Oregon. The log cabin was probably built before the sawmill outside of town made boards used to build the other house. Now the sawmill is gone as well. It was collapsing when I photographed it in 2003. www.hisandhersphoto.com/ghost/hhghosto_008.htm

La loge, peinture à l'huile de Jean Guillaume

The lowest stretch of logging road leading to the junction to The Lions is some of the most hated logging road I have ever hiked. Hard, rocky, bone-jarring and makes me wish I had a bike. Once you continue on beyond onto the seldom visited Hat Mountain spur, the road is exceptionally pleasant. Tall ferns and soft moss have covered the road in places, and we encountered no less than four(!) grouse hens guarding their newly born chicks while hiking the road. We had one grouse whose chicks were particularly young bluff charge us with her claws out, causing us to temporarily retreat!

Washington state and the west are the best at log carving. Here is one of the artist's work displayed at a wood carving show in Ocean Shores, Washington.

On the road for spring break... I followed a load of logs for a while.

As seen on-line and which I find quite interesting. Anyone know the maker of the axe and the approximate year of the tool?

 

I think

- this dates to early 20th Century (possibly to the as early as 1890's)

- the FS has been added after the fact

- Used on "Government Timber Reservation" property which predates the forest service

- Possibly used on during WWI when the Army logged Spruce trees in the PNW for airplane building material.

 

As noted - these are NOT my pictures - but I do have permission to share them.

 

Update 8/20/2015 and 11/21/2017

A drawing of this ax and the brand is included in a 1937 book on CCC logging operations here - page 138

 

It is also known as a Marking Ax, and references to manufactured US marked Marking Axes are found back to at least 1901, and locally made ones back to about 1897 - see story by Water Donaldson here about page 42

 

I started a wonky log cabin quilt this evening. I know, I wasn't going to start a new one until I finished up the other three now, but I couldn't resist.

A large random John Deere 843K Wheeled Feller Buncher with a FD22B Felling Head saw attachment in the woods near my house during a lumber harvest.

Yule log is a traditional dessert served near Christmas. It can be considered a type of sweet roulade.

Found a cut tree trunk today.

It's interesting that the PANO-sabotage effect is very prominent in the leaves, but not so much in the trunks.

Bueno pues después del mini sondeo, he hecho un poco lo que me ha salido de los huevos y he cogido la idea del primer logo que probé jaja Ahora solo queda ver cómo queda en las fotos.

Ever wonder what it takes to build a log house. These are pictures of the entire construction of our house from October 2006 to Nov 2007. It might take me a few days to put them all up, so if you're looking at these as I am posting them, check back for the rest.

 

I'll add these all to me log home set, so it might be easier to click that set to the right and go from there (I'll try to get them in order the best I can).

 

If you have any questions about the construction, feel free to ask. I was there pretty much everday and then I was there everyday after I fired our general contractor and had to finish his work myself.

 

Feel free to leave comments.
