MICROWAVE SYSTEM CHAPTER #6 |
Company Cat hauling Spryte snowcat across river, ready for winter I have the actual site log for the site, One story that keeps
cropping up, is my “sinking” of a Tucker Sno-cat, in the lake up behind
the radio site. Actually it all started very innocently a week earlier.
My 2nd level, Dave Robinson came to the site on an inspection / visit,
and wanted a tour of the area, so away we went over the lake and up into
the hills. The next week my friend from Saskatchewan showed up, so
I did the same for him, only in 1 week the ice had melted under the snow,
and unknown to me was very thin. Needless to say the machine broke
thru the ice, about 15’ from the edge, and there it stayed, sunk about
3’ in the slush. We all then had to walk about 5 miles down
the hill to the truck. Next week we pulled the machine out with a
huge come-along borrowed from BC Hydro. No more tours after that!
We tied the come-along to a tree on the right side
