Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:30 a.m. on November 9, 1990, Employee #1 was unhooking chokers and trimming logs. Two logs lay in the shoot on the landing. As a 36 in. diameter at breast height red fir log was being landed, it struck a 24 in. diameter at breast height red fir lying in the shoot. The 24 in. red fir swung around toward the Link-Belt 98 yarder, striking Employee #1. He suffered fractured ribs, a punctured lung, and possible arm and shoulder injuries, for which he was hospitalized.
