Getting near the end, now, you'll be pleased to hear!

These are of the last event we saw - tossing the caber. (Yes, it IS a real sport!)

The object here is to throw (or 'toss') the caber end-over-end so it lands with the "base" ppointing away from you, and in a straight line. It is a solid log, 20 feet long and weighing approximately 121 pounds.

Fancy a go?
