Water Tank and crew: Road Sprinklers, needed to keep the path slick for pulling the loads of logs (Early 1900's) The horses were fit with specially-made studded horseshoes, to keep from slipping. All equipment included hand brakes to slow down enough to keep from running right over the horses or oxen while going downhill. The water tanks could hold up to 3,000 gallons of water.
