  • We cut a long log with a mill in half. Then cut a few inches off one side. We then began to add 3′ steps up that long log in order of a set of stairs.
  • Here we are done with the stairs and making an effort to raise it.
  • Here I am drilling holes to add the lag bolts to attach the stairs to the other side.
  • Looks like both sides are lagged and John is working with our metal lift in raising the stairway.
  • Wow…it was sure heavy…but the metal lift was more than up to the job!
  • John, Cory and I show off in front of our new set of stairs.
  • Here John is doing the brain work on the stairs.
  • John is cutting the stairs to fit.
  • Elk down below by the road! Pretty darn close for wild Elk!!
  • Look at all those Bulls!!
  • The big guy still has his velvet on his antlers. He’ll be a nice four point!
  • Getting ready to lift the stairway up on to the loft log.
  • I am sure happy at this point…it’s almost there!
  • Jack is cutting off the extra log.
