Miners's Days - Double Jack, Women's Wood Splitting, Snow Board Fence

These women were strong. The women stand back from the start line, when they yell GO, they grab their ax, drop it at the stump, dash to the wood pile, grab two logs, then make at least four splits of the big log. Then toss split logs into a pile and run like crazy (with the log splitter) back to the finish line. The winner did all this in around 1 minute. I believe she had experience.
Love the snow board fence, this is what they do with all the old skis and boards, colorful.
Double Jack is a two person procedure where one person holds the chisel, while the other person whacks with a heavy sledge hammer. You must have extreme faith in the person with the sledge hammer. This technique was used in mining to make holes in the rock for the dynamite. They do this in teams and take turns.
