It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our dear friend and fellow competitor, Brian Bartow.
Brian was truly one of a kind. His larger-than-life personality, competitive spirit, and love for the sport left a lasting impression on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. Whether he was competing, sharing a laugh, or simply enjoying the camaraderie of fellow competitors, Brian brought something special to every event.
He was more than just a great competitor — he was a cherished friend and an unforgettable part of our logging show family. His presence will be deeply missed, but the memories, laughter, and friendships he leaves behind will never be forgotten.
Our hearts go out to Brian’s family, friends, and everyone whose life he touched during this incredibly difficult time.
We ask that you please consider supporting Brian’s family by donating to their GoFundMe. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help ease the burden on his loved ones as they navigate this heartbreaking loss.
Rest easy, Brian. You will forever be a part of our logging show family. ❤️🪵
