Image Timber slide 1901.jpg thumb 230px right Timber slide in Ottawa, with the Prince of Wales on timber raft, Sept. 1901. A timber slide is a device for moving timber past rapids and waterfall s. Their use in Canada was widespread in the 18th and 19th century timber trade. At this time, cut timber would be floated down river s in large timber raft s from logging camps to ports such as Montreal and Saint John, New Brunswick . Rapids and waterfalls would, however, damage the wood and could potentially cause log jams. Thus at these locations timber slides were constructed. These were thin water filled chute gravity chutes that would run Parallel geometry parallel to the river. They would usually only be wide enough for a single log and one at a time the logs would be directed down it. The idea is attributed to Ruggles Wright who introduced the first one in 1829 not far from what is today down town Hull, Quebec , Canada http www.collectionscanada.ca canadiandirectories 022009 1100 e.html . Later the slides could often be up to a kilometre in length. They were most commonly found on the Ottawa River system. In some areas the timber slide became a noted tourist attraction. The most notable being the one bypassing the Chaudi re Falls on the Ottawa River in Ottawa. Even the Prince of Wales , who later became King Edward VII of the United Kingdom Edward VII took a thrilling ride down the 1.2 km chute see photo . Timber slides disappeared after the construction of canal networks and the decline of the timber trade. They were almost all out of service by the World War I First World War . Resources Lee, David.
