    Ran across this on Craigslist on thought it was pretty cool. I could never justify the cost of it but I do think it would come in handy a lot, especially on my property. Wonder how steep of a hill you could use it on?

    Very unique machine. Like brand new. Works amazingly well. Must see to believe how much wood you can skid in a day with this machine. Leaves virtually no trace on the ground that it was ever there. Virtually no environmental impact at all. Machines like this are used exstinsively in Europe to log with because of their strict rules concerning how much environmental damages can be done while logging. Does require operator to be somewhat physically fit, because you walk in front of the machine, but it does all the work. If you'd like to see one operate please go to youtube and type in "Jonsered Iron Horse" and there is alot of video to watch. Call or text 740-541-0291 for more info.

    Pretty sweet, I want one. That's a lot of scratch though. Could probably get an ok used skid steer for that price.
