Historic Pulp Wood Stacker

Located in the Mill Yard Park in Cornell, Wisconsin.  It is believed to be the last known stacker of its kind in the world.  The stacker was used from 1913 until 1972.  It was simply a device that was used to stack the pulp wood after being sawed into the desired lengths for processing.  The smaller pulp wood sticks were then floated under ground through a system of sluices to the grinder room of the paper mill.  It is being perserved by the community as a monument of the area's logging era.  The structure stands 175 ft. tall.
