Brinkman Camp not floklore!
I’d have to go ahead and disagree with you on both points there.
This is 100% a Brinkman camp and not Folklore. And, having worked with Folklore for the past 3 years, I would say they have the utmost respect for their planters in every aspect, rendering your comment, essentially inaccurate and thus unfounded.
that company was folklore based in Prince George BC. big company. little respect for their planters. steer clear.
Yes…yesss…completely! What a radical video and what looks like a good crew! what co. is it?
Awesome!!!!
Great video, but please give credit where it’s due: See the Log Driver’s Waltz on NFB website

“The tree planters waltz pleases the girls…completely”!! ROFL. That’s awesome!

this totally just made my night – I’m sitting here doing a project researching the methods of research ethics [bore] and I just watched this. BOY ! I miss the outdoors and honest labour etc… of the planters life – makes me just want to say F* it and run off again…. Thanks for the vid.
This is great!

f-ing sweet. Almost makes me want to go back planting…almost

I love the work hard play hard dexterity of this video, it captures the hypnotic intensities that waltz planters back each year. Bangin song times ten too.
