- As the forestry industry moves into steeper terrain across the province, forest planners, layout and
engineering staff, and road construction contractors are playing a crucial role in ensuring
the roads that lead us there are safe for their intended use. This video illustrates key
messages for the correct planning, engineering and building of a switchback and
the value the forest industry places on ensuring resource roads are safe for all users.
Through a lifetime in the forest industry, I had witnessed enough serious incidents concerning road design to become passionate about sharing and promoting safe road design. I had the privilege of doing that for the concluding years of my career, and some students have told me that my sessions on switchbacks were more like an evangelical sermon than a "normal" class. Thank you BCFSC for this excellent video. And thanks to all of you that contributed. To former student Matt, I quote a 1st-century teacher: "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth."
After years I finally found a video that explains this very clearly! Thanks!
I'm applying the techniques exhibited here in my hiking trail building in the Santa Cruz Mountains of Northern California, especially insight into the crucial switchbacks
We’re neighbors. I’m in the CZU burn area. Building trails and fire breaks. But not with a D8. My largest machine is only 6 tons.
Man I would love to work on a project like that. I built roads and cut ins for small scale logging and would love to get involved in big professional jobs.
What if the area is soft. Do you lay logs and bury them. I know I did some cordwood road but for lighter vechicles. Would get expensive hauling in rock.
