Clark Skidder in the Canadian Wilderness

We left what was alive and took out the beaver destruction.

Lucky man! Working in those beautiful conditions!! With that beautiful skidded!

[@peewee.3138]

Nothing like the sound of a screaming Detroit in the woods!

[@handsandfeethomestead9116]

Amen Louie! There is a responsible approach to logging. One that you and the land benefits from. So awesome following your journey. Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work!

[@rollingupmysleeves]

Absolutely, thanks for watching!!

Brings back memories from my youth in NZ. No safety back then, steel cap boots & a hard hat that was all. Whether you were on a saw, skidder, dozer, or a loader, all the same. Clarks were dangerous fun, and safety was, 'Grab that bar and lock yourself in', if it went arse up.... Love the sound of a 2 stroke screaming around the mountains under full load. I started on a 664, mid 1970s, Windfall in -30ish temps, base of the great southern alps, in 4-6 ft snow. Also trained on D6 Dozer, and Michigan 75B log loader. Then Australia for a year to defrost/warm up again. Back to NZ and onto 666 on the mountains a yr later. Nelson Area, as well as 668 on sand flats for the same boss. It was a unique game back in the day, now replaced by machines, that do everything, except the dishes. 🤨🤣

Brings back memories!

Rolling up your sleeves indeed. Skidded needs a PowerModz sticker for that extra 5hp. Can’t leave it behind, Louie! Loving this new channel and always a fan of PowerModz here in WASHINGTON state (the best Washington of the US;)

[@Ticdaniel]

Those 2stroke diesels 😝😝

[@joeturcotte2810]

I did the same thing in northern Ontario back then. Not much safety concern! Minus 35%! My Timberjack did not have an enclosed cabin and no door.

[@AkatarawaJapan]

That guy is really getting through some work. Nice to see a decent fall of snow on the property.

[@murraytichborne9903]

falling trees and hauling out with the skidder. like music to my ears.

[@rollingupmysleeves]

It's honest work!

[@murraytichborne9903]

@@rollingupmysleeves I know all about this Mr. powermodz. I opened up a firewood business near thunderbay using a treefarmer, jonesred 74cc 20inch bar and a stihl 40cc 16inch bar. although we sold poplar and birch not much of the oak here.

[@williamquirk69]

Great video love the new channel I’ve been a fan of yours since the 12 elan mod I’ve always wanted to do it to my own but I love my 12 the way she is

[@MotoModzofficial]

Louie your putting the boy to work

[@job38four10]

I wish motors could be quieter, even todays tractors are to loud for my taste. I cut all trash firewood down to 4" , only leave the good wood like future saw logs. good video........

[@rollingupmysleeves]

Honestly I agree now, that skidder blew my eardrums out. I easily knew where it was when my guy was in the bush though. The little tracked skidders i have now with the gas engine are getting mufflers - nice and quiet. Thanks for watching.

[@slednecker87]

Pure diesel power!!! Awesome looking skidder!!

[@Erated78]

I'm with you, I love learning and it was interesting watching this professional work that chainsaw and the skidder. Must have been a two-stroke motor as it was revving high. Thanks, great video!

[@rollingupmysleeves]

Yes it was!

[@gregtaylor8327]

Best winch in the buisness.

[@rollingupmysleeves]

💯 percent

[@timminstraprs2169]

I WANT ONE!!!

[@audiquattro6768]

Sounds like an 8V71. She just revs to the moon! Great to see some snow too.

[@rollingupmysleeves]

It does! It's the 353 2 stroker!

[@marlinmacdonald3419]

Hahahaha. 871. Lol. Too funny.

[@michaudmech]

Love the detroit diesel skidder. Powermodz swag me please.

[@alexandregrenier1654]

Just curious on what tree species beavers munch on down in southern Ontario? I've only ever seen Birch and Poplar and whatever shrubs are in my area!

[@rollingupmysleeves]

They will eat anything along a pond basically. They really like poplar - but everything is on the menu

[@bernardfrith1833]

All ways enjoyed cutting wood in a snowstorm!

[@rollingupmysleeves]

Me too!

[@kylebell5129]

Old 2 stroke detroit just screaming:) ... out of curiosity what did you get for land. I been looking into land in un organized townships. Price, on water,size, How far away from road has been what I have been looking at some are fairly cheep others still want 1 million for a postage stamp. I'm thinking a Alaskan mill a skidder will get me well on my way to having a little fun in developing and building my own land

[@rollingupmysleeves]

You're going to have to go north for cheaper land - coeeeevide messed things up here with land prices - all the city people moving out of the city driving things up.

[@SaturdayNiteSpecial]

Do you think you will ever buy another skidder?

[@rollingupmysleeves]

Yes for sure, I really miss it - but to be honest hopefully it will have a cummins -I don't think my ears can take the noise anymore...

[@murraytichborne9903]

bucking em up in 8ft. easy to scale bushcords that way

[@rollingupmysleeves]

Yup!

[@murraytichborne9903]

skibo, holy crap, you're up late, sleep when you're dead.
