Rygaard Logging

Location: Port Angeles, Washington

Rygaard is known for making a little go a long way. They run older equipment, they take the jobs that no one else wants,and they make it all work for them in a way that only Rygaard could… at least, they used to. Now this old school company is getting a makeover. Owner Gabe Rygaard has invested everything he has into the biggest and best machinery on the mountain–a supercharged yarder, a new loader even a helicopter to string their skylines. Still smarting from last year’s three-load loss to rival J.M. Browning, this year, Rygaard is anxious for another crack at the King of the Mountain.

But this season, the crew is in uncharted territory–stationed on one of Washington’s most dangerous mountains and trying to tame machinery that could kill them in an instant. Any way you look at it, the Rygaard guys have their work cut out for them.
