Born2clearcut You came through again great pictures I worked on that machine for a day in late 1966 I was on the ground hooking the straps to L Hooks ,I think one of the stackers was broken down , by that time they had moth balled their mobile A frame and were using a Kenworth stacker to split the loads in two or three bites to unload the trucks . Youve got to remmber the Renfrew DLS if it was not the first DLS on the BC coast it ran a close second and there was some trial and error. I didnt realize that it picked the load up high enough to clear the stakes , mind you the stakes in those days were shorter. On the A frames over water you use one line to hold the spreader bar over the load while taking the weight by lifting on the other line ,trip the water side stakes , release the line holding the spreader bar. As the load swings out over the water you release the brake on the other line dumping the load in the water . I dont know when it happened but sometime in the late 60s it was dismanteled and shipped to Black Water camp at their Mackenzie Div. Later on its my under standing the winch part of it was brought back to the coast to pull bundles out of the water at Shoal Island DLS.
