In modern logging, modern [[technology]] plays a large role. This includes the use of [[helicopter]]s, yarders, loaders, "yoaders" (a combination yarder-loader), "feller-bunchers", and mechanical delimbers. [[Chainsaw]]s are commonly used. Older logging techniques include "high-lead" logging, in which a designated logger would climb a tree to use as a spar, or anchor point, delimbing the tree as he went and cutting off the top. Block and tackle would then be affixed to this tree, which would be used to winch other felled trees to a location called a landing. The landing is the place where felled trees would be loaded onto transport ([[truck]]s, or commonly in older times, a [[railroad]] or floated down a [[river]].)
