Clip description

Bullock lines haul logs through the forest to the landing stages from which they are transferred to the mill; a winch system with wire ropes haul logs through the bush where it is not too dense; another winch system lifts logs into the air over ‘impenetrable country’ assisted by retired bullock drivers.
