March 2009: The logs are hauled to the building site
This winter
we have exceptional amounts of snow on the ground and the logs are
buried up to one metre deep in the snow. It was wise to mark every log
with a flag and draw a detailed map of the area in fall. First, we have
to dig out the logs, pull them into a groove and drag them by skidoo
out of the wood. Then we haul them 3.5 km across the frozen lake and
finally 30 vertical metres up to the building site. The larger logs
need to be pulled up by motor winch, the smaller ones the skidoo
masters directly. After 3 weeks of hard work, all 80 logs are stacked
and ready for building.
