In a French Alpine resort, lumberjacks are chopping logs as a sport.⁣
⁣
The axe-wielding competitors are lining up on the chopping blocks at Chamrousse in France, for the country's oldest competition of its kind.⁣
⁣
The field ranges from local foresters to trained athletes, among them Pierre Puybaret, who has won the French competitive lumberjacking title nine times and lives an hour from the town.⁣
