USFS - Historical Footage - Clearwater Flume Logging - 1938

In the interest of highlighting traditional skills, I am sharing this great video produced by the USFS Northern Region. According to the USFS Audio-Visual website description: Flume Logging - Clearwater River. This video highlights the early years of the Clearwater Log Drive (1928-1971) when flumes transported logs from the woods to the bank of the river throughout the logging season. Tree lengths were skidded to this flume landing and the "bucked' by sawyers into saw logs. Men then rolled the logs into the flume. Water would be released from flume dams as needed to float the logs to the river. The original length of this particular flume was about eight miles. Now, all we have left to remind this generation of the endeavor are "Log Flume" amusement park rides. But you can see what a real flume was like right here! Enjoy!
