    A large log placed on a flatcar. The print is backed onto cardboard. "Wellburn Timbers Limited" stamped on the back and the image is captioned with "Ground Yarder - Note Sniped Ends - Port Renfrew". The sniped ends refers to how the ends of the log are cut in a rounded manner. This makes logs run more smoothly over rough ground when being pulled by a yarder/steam donkey, or down a chute.
