Two men were cutting trees, according to officials, when one of the trees landed on top of the 20-year-old man. They were logging on a farm 80 to 90 feet down a steep hill by a ravine.
Police haven't released the victim's name, but he was flown to a Pittsburgh hospital with life-threatening injuries.
The area was so remote and the man's injuries so severe that police couldn't wait for big machinery. Emergency responders went down to get the man.
