groomer Posted January 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 So that's called a forwarder? Here's one pulling out one of Caribou-Conscrit's finest last week... hi scorpionbowl !! whoops !!.....thats not funny !!! i guess forwarder was close !! enough to ruin your day !!...reminds me a few bad luck!!..hahha!! the problem when this happen,even if you lift the drag at the max ,it does nt give you much clearance between drag and ground....im lucky a bit ,lifting the pan at the max on the sur trac give a few extra inches . but my ''average '' is still good in 12 years of grooming !! -17c right now !! jean-guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groomer Posted January 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 smclelan a little bit of geography ...hahhhaha!!! took the pic of forwarder on my way back at ......f-1 there some more at f-2 about 1 miles further west with tree harvesters and maintenance trucks....then pile of woods ,where i took the pic of the machine from top of the pile of wood. its going to be very windy there !!!big clearcut !! just on the left side of f-2 ,the road there ...it was old tq-5 when i started grooming back in 00 ...maybe you re familiar there.connecting with the end of main street ,maybe 3 miles from downtown ste marguerite. coming from cross point ...at the 90' corner ,if you go straight you could end up at the ''12 miles ''..on t l r...at the bottom of long hill after forestry school. jean-guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
