Road change, Skagit BU-99 slackline yarder - linehorse

Line Horse in Sproat lake Think this must be the same truck and winch... see it live here: . Now rests up in Port McNeill among many, many friends. The skagit in the video is a BU98, and its most certainly scrapped. Bruce, driving the line horse in the video, told me, just some days ago that the tower was real hard on the lines, probably because of bearing wear on some of the sheaves.
