Here's the bid for the clearcut and a map of the area to be cut. I couldn't find who got the bid, though.
For some reason I ended up back on the start of this thread and saw this post and picture. I think I now know what this is. It is a loading platform, sort of like a stand-alone loading dock, probably from CCC days. I guess you would back a truck up to it, unload onto this platform, then ??? Not sure what it looks like from the other side - does it have a ramp? If not, maybe it had a wooden ramp that is now gone?Could it have been right across the road on this???? If we are uncertain I know the person to ask.

Low Ground Pressure Equipment: Could it be something like this?

That's happened to me, and I don't like it. We advise people to wear orange during hunting season, then people think we're hunting because we are wearing orange. Maybe we need a new color to mean I'm not hunting but I want to be seen by hunters and not mistaken for a deer?his kids saw us in orange and thought we were hunting

Since the requirement is to use low ground pressure equipment it must be. I figured they would use machines that cut and limb in one operation. This appears to be a small machine, but maybe it's the only size that meets the ground contact requirement.Here is a machine he had on site before. Based on what 1Jerseydevil said, maybe this counts as a low ground pressure vehicle. Unlike the marshmaster, though, this thing cuts and removes trees. Up to a certain size, anyway.

For a given weight, the larger the surface area, the lower the ground pressure (fewer pounds per square inch).
