So, a couple of weeks ago a friend asked me if I’ve ever ran a two man buck saw. Way back when I was getting my Wildland Firefighter Sawyer Cert, I had to learn all manner of motor-less logging equipment for working in “Wilderness Areas” , so I was stupid enough to admit this to him. Anyways this is what I did today. (These are professionals, competing in “The Jack and Jill” event) 
This is Don and myself (facing away from the camera) 
My partner, Don (who had never ran a cross-cut buck saw) and I finished our cut in 35 seconds, it was last place, but I sure had fun competing. Our four man relay team (how I got suckered in) finished around fourth, and this event had a lot of teams (almost all professional loggers) since there was a $1000 winner take all purse. Colin did the ax throw and had a respectable 5 throw and tag, our log truck strapper was probable the second fastest there, and Don and I weren’t the slowest on the buck saw.
This event was part of our Flint Creek Valley Days celebration and was sponsored by a lot of local businesses and Montana Logging Association I’m taking K and WR to the Street Dance latter tonight also.
