This is an off road truck! There wouldn't be any water left in the tank! Besides, the fish would probably die of shock.

What is done with poplar trees? Here in B.C. those trees are just left in the bush. Good to see them on a truck rather than laying on the ground rotting. 6 wrappers? You must have built up some strong pipes.

We hauled into the Alberta Pacific Pulp Mill (ALPAC) near Grassland, AB. We would also haul some pine and spruce that went into the pulp as well. Sad to see some of that big spruce go into pulp! Alpac (Asian owned) provides the highest quality of pulp in the world, and most is shipped overseas.

Hehe...8 wrappers.

Throwing wrappers was my favourite part of the day! I made a game of it...see how fast I could do it! I was down to throwing and tightening them all down as well as flagging in 9 1/2 - 10 minutes consistently. My fastest time was just under 8 minutes. Good times! And yes, I do have pipes. I preferred the 1/2" cables to the 3/8" cables as well. All the guys in camp were complaining because we ran out of 3/8" cables so they had to use the odd 1/2" cable when they broke/lost one. So I switched out any 3/8" cables I had for the 1/2" and all the complaining stopped because "The girl can do it....go look at her truck!"
