My neighbor told me a similar story about 1 log per truck in the old days.
There was an article in The Oregonian a couple weeks back about an upstart company in St. Helens, OR, doing Willamette and Columbia River underwater timber salvage similar to the operations in the Great Lakes and other places. The owner of the company has his eye on a beast of a log that he just doesn't have the massive equipment, as yet, to raise - the log is on the order of 12' in diameter.

This one log part per truck reminds me of the joke of the two farmers bragging about the size of their farms where the first farmer says: "My farm is so large that I need 3 days to drive around it in my car!", to which the other replies" "Oh yes, I once also had a car like that..."

One of our local hospitals has a wall of historical photos from the community. A few of those photos are of log trucks (and even mule-drawn wagons) pulling huge logs. To the best of my recollection and guestimation, the logs are 6-10 feet diameter. Except these aren't redwoods or virgin fir, they're bayou cypress. From above the swell.
Man, couldn't I make a fishing cabin with one of those!
