Logging and Mill Tour
On our recent trip to Forks, I went on the logging tour. I very much enjoyed this experience.
The trip on the logging roads was quite breathtaking and even though the day was quite drizzly the views and scenery were most impressive, The tour driver was so very competent that even when we were backing down a strip of very narrow and sharp logging road I felt comfortable and safe. Watching the logs being loaded on the truck was quite an experience and the skill of the machine operator and how he manipulated the trees onto the truck was truly impressive. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and his stories were interesting. I would recommend this tour to anyone who would like a better knowledge of the forest industry in your area.
Many Thanks,
