That is the old style of cable & grapple log loader used extensively before hydraulic log loaders came on the scene. They were still used in SE AK into the early 90's but I haven't seen one used in years now. They were slow and took a lot of skill to manipulate the grapple by cable.@jacob j. Post #852- I'm curious what kind of machine that is. Almost looks like it was a shovel converted to logging duty.
