Timberworks Lumberjack Show
Libby Logger Days
June 29, 2016

Libby Logger Days featured three performances of the
Timberworks Lumberjack Show, a professional touring company
demonstrating traditional logging events. Saturday's
performances included the single buck, ax throw,
springboard chop, obstacle pole race, hot saw, speed
climbing, and log rolling (birling). A humorous speed
carving demonstration also provided a carved log chair to a
lucky child from the audience.

The show provided an entertaining glimpse into our
country's logging history and the skills possessed by
loggers of the past. More information about the show can be found at www.timberworkslumberjackshow.com.
