Abstract: On January 27, 2003, Employee #1 climbed atop a 20-25 ft log pile. The logs had a tremendous amount of ice build-up and it appears that Employee #1 slipped, fell to the ground, and landed between two rows of log piles. Employee #1 was rescued and transported to a hospital in a nearby city where he was placed on life support. Several hours later that afternoon, the life support was terminated and Employee #1 was pronounced dead due to head trauma injuries, hypothermia, and hypovolemia.
