Investigation Summary
On December 23, 2013, Employee #1, a rigging slinger, and a logging crew were engaged in logging at a timber sale in a fire salvage area. They were logging in an area behind the landing, which consisted of mixed growth timber at a short yard distance of about 150 ft on steep slopes. Several turns of logs had accumulated in the landing chute below the road as the loader operator loaded a truck with timber. The loader operator then removed a log from the chute and another log was dislodged. It slid downhill towards the rigging crew. The dislodged log struck a log, which then struck Employee #1 and crushed his pelvis. He received traumatic injuries. Employee #1 was transported to a medical center, where he underwent surgery and was then hospitalized, being released several days later.
