Logging Arch for ATV's

I've previously posted articles on the logging arch by Norwood Industries and have noticed the interest from all over North America and beyond. I thought it was only right to post yet another article on this logging Arch for ATV's. This thing is a brute, if you're disappointed in it's abilities you must be trying to haul giant redwoods. Seriously folks this is one awesome piece of equipment, I have nothing bad to say about it, the only limitations are the power and gripping ability of your tires on you're quad. During March I will be dropping approximately sixty 26 foot red pine for my log cabin, and I already know that the logging arch will probably be pulling two logs at a time; each tree being approximately 20 inches at the butt and 26 feet long. Now how can you complain about that............and that's with a 400 Outlander Quad. So if you are still wondering....................Don't! Oh and no I don't work for nor am I sponsored by Norwood Industries.........yet!

Fishing BC

During my career of working, and living what I would consider to be the greatest job in the world I have experienced more than the average outdoor enthusiast. This article is dedicated to my time spent employed as a Forest Officer with the Ministry of Forests in Stewart, British Columbia. This article is specifically dedicated to fishing Meziadin Lake, located in the interior of BC, 40 minutes from Stewart BC. If you ever find yourself in Stewart or on your way to the Yukon, or Alaska be sure to fish this lake. You can launch your boat at the Provincial park, and head straight across the lake, when you reach the far side, troll approximately 20 feet from shore and use a Cleo; no weight in 5 -10 ft of water. If you troll more than a half an hour without either catching a Dolly Varden or a Rainbow ....I can't help you.....lol . I can't tell you how many times and how many years this worked for me; the locals troll deep water, fish off the mouth of the creeks...........I used this method, would meet them back at camp and they'd say "Any Luck?" I'd simply say no, go help yourself to a cold one.........when they opened the cooler I'd get ........you " Jerk" What are you using? I'd simply reply "A Cleo"; to which they would say "What the heck is a Cleo" To which I would say ..."It's an Ontario lure for catching fish!" I used to laugh so hard, it made me cry. But seriously folks, this is one part of BC that is tuly amazing.

Nikon D800 Rumours

I summarize the Nikon rumour for D700 replacement:

D800 will have a sensor carriage that can be removed by an authorized dealer. The rest of the specs: 16.4MP FX and 12MP B&W sensors, 3.3″ LCD screen with a built in collapsible hood, new MB-D10i battery grip, 1/16000sec, full HD video at 120fps.

Shutter speeds of 1/16000sec and a new technology for very long exposures without noise or extra time. (This will be very good!)

Better AF in video mode with proper Full HD video at 120fps

D3 will be replaced by D4 at the end of the year.

Truck Overturned at Pujut/Piasau Roundabout

News 24-Feb-2011 Thursday: Those going to Lutong/Piasau this morning will expect delay and huge traffic jam as a truck had overturned at the Pujut/Piasau roundabout.

From the track on the road, it seems that this driver did not really slow down at the roundabout.

But it is a blessing in disguise for other road users as the truck did not really block much of the road.

Just in case you are curious, the truck was loaded with wood chips. The problem now is the quick cleanup required as it is raining heavily this morning and a big portion of the load had gone into the drain.
