Investigation Summary
A rigging crew had finished setting a turn of logs and walked up a hill, behind the turn and in the clear. Employee #1 was behind the rigging slinger and off to his side, standing below a small fir log approximately 20 ft long and 30 in. diameter. After the turn had left its bed and was approximately 60 ft up the hill, the log above Employee #1 started to roll toward him. He tried to get out of the way, but the log struck him and rolled over him, breaking both his ankles.
