Oregon “Ax Men” loggers have had their share of bad press in the past year (examples here and here), but Oregon Department of Forestry offers up some good.
A former “Ax Men” logger, Mark Gustafson—whose company was on the first two series of the acclaimed series—received a statewide honor as Forest Operator of the Year, disproving naysayers who think the crews on the show are somehow separate from the state’s timber industry.
Watch first-season video of Mark Gustafson or read more about his crew on the History Web site. And listen to an audio clip of Gustafson from the Department of Forestry.
