Winches, Etc.: Keene Engineering Online

I've been active here for over two years and not once have I seen pics of boulder moving equipment such as this. This was
considered standard minimum in my prospecting days. Can anyone enlighten me ?

I have one of these kits made by Dayton of which is a 10 ton press. The circled item is great for seams in rock that you want to open. With the other attachments you can move boulders out of the way. Also have a winch.

Found this catalog that looked like it had some pretty handy stuff

That is a serious miner's "Xmas catalogue". I remember scanning that or similar catalogue years ago for weeks finding stuff on my wish list. The fact they
are selling to non-profit and gov't agencies to build hiking trails using my tax dollars, doesn't matter in this case - they've got GREAT GOODIES

I've done that on FS land with this dredge



We high-lined it back onto the trailer from the river. Had to raise it 35feet or so into the air to get it back up and bring it over.

Reed I am sure you have. Seen the video of you all winching the 3 wheel cart to the river. I was just poking fun at FS expense. Yet FS would somehow find away to ticket me with my luck of late.
