Extreme Hillside Wheat Harvest In Prescott, WA.

 

Some areas have unique challenges when farming wheat.  Here is a video that shows how the McCaw Farms team harvests their wheat crop on some extreme hillsides. 

This was harvest of soft white winter wheat, in hills known as the Skyrockets a few miles northwest of Prescott, Wash. The locals say its probably the steepest wheat land anywhere and has claimed its share of lives and combines in decades gone by.

The hillsides look very challenging to outsiders who farm on level fields.
