In 2002 this under-water treasure was discovered and reclaimed by the Lake Superior Water-Logged Lumber Company. There they rested for decades, perfectly preserved by the low temperature and oxygen content of the water. But then, as the logs were floated down the lake to local sawmills, some became water-logged and sank to the bottom. As the trees were felled each lumberjack placed his registered sawyer’s mark on the log to identify both the cutter and the year of harvest. These Maple, Oak, Birch and Ash trees had been growing for hundreds and hundreds of years - sheltered by a canopy of taller Pines and untouched by the hand of man. the forests of the Great Lakes region of North America were clear-cut to make the lumber to build America’s towns and cities. ![]() This is a Craviotto Lake Superior Birch Snare Drum number 42 of 100.ĭuring the period from 1870 to 1920 A.D.
