Vintage logging – Slip tongue carts

Each Saturday morning I review 10 vintage logging, forestry and saw milling photos. This week’s review of vintage logging is about winter scenes including sleighs and other means of transport over the snow.

I only have 6 photos featuring slip tongue carts so the other four will be woodsmen and workers from days gone by.
