Employee Is Injured in Yarder Overturn

On February 7, 2012, a crew was sending a turn of logs to the landing, and the "dog" on the guyline broke. That caused the guyline to free spool and the yarder to tip sideways. Employee #1 sustained a fracture to an unspecified body part during the incident, and he was hospitalized.
