Employee Is Killed by a Falling Rock

On September 21, 2004, Employee #1 was working as a choker-setter on a cable yarding logging site where the terrain was sloped approximately 60 degrees. The skyline carriage had returned after pulling logs up the hill to a landing. Employee #1 was pulling slack on the choker so he could attach it to a log when a rock dislodged from the steep hillside, striking him, and killing him.
