Back in the 70's I worked along side cat skinners logging building fire trails. Every so often they had to put in a water bar to drain and not wash out the trail. I would walk with him carrying a chain saw and shovel. Then rap the winch around trees because the ground was to steep to back up! I considered that an easy job when I started hooking logs the went to falling trees. Loved it but the industry went under from government policies, tarrifs ect.

That's not steep. Where I come from they have to put the oil pan on the top of the engine because we are almost upside down. The operator lays flat on his back on the floor of the cab. The guages are mounted on the roof, and there is a parachute pack mounted on top of the rippers.

I would've had to change my shorts. I ran heavy equipment at a copper mine for 10yrs. It would amaze me the things a cat can do in the hands of the right operator. I however hated running a cat. I definitely preferred running a grader. This guy knew what he was doing. He kept calm and didn't freak out. I ran D9 D10 and D11 so this cat is way smaller but just as scary of a ride.

Funny it doesn’t look as steep as it is. I operate D10s and 11s. Been in this spot but not as bad cause so far not once have i started sliding with the material. And thats going right over dump faces feet on the dash. This would have had major pucker factor.

@@Flyboy207 Loader tracks have no grousers (the part that sticks up on dozer tracks for added traction) to keep from tearing the ground up so bad because you're mostly turning the machine in a loading situation. Loader pads have cross bars, usually 3 flat ones but no projections. The projections are the grousers. Loader track pads are flat compared to dozer tracks BUT you can get either type pads on either type machine IF you want.

@@Flyboy207 No problem. You can buy long lengths (10 and 20 foot usually) of regular grouser bar stock that you can cut to length and weld onto flat loader pads or shoes to make them more aggressive. And if I had a track loader with a winch and was skidding logs with it I'd sure be running grousered pads. Just saying. BLESSINGS 2 U!

I don't bother taking videos of shit like this anymore. Its never does it justice. The slope are always far worse than they look on video. But an operator can see how steep that was. When the machine nose over near the bottom that was a bit of a give away.

I guess none of you saw the winch and wire rope off the back of the dozer huh? The controlled descent was all due to that.
