I wouldn't be doing any firewood splitting, I wouldn't even cut to length. I'd probably just throw on 8' logs or what ever is managable. I'd cut firewood length and do any splitting I needed to do at home later on.
I'd probably just drop some dead standing tamarack down by the gate, limb them & toss log lengths onto the trailer.
3 decent sized trees will pretty much fill the back of an 8' pickup box if it's cut to firewood length. I'd be really happy if I could bring home about 6 trees. That's maybe a bit ambitious with this snow depth and the trees being off the trail a ways. We'd just have to see how it goes I guess.
Maybe we could reach far enough with straps to skid them up to the trail.
like most things chickenbuck, we'll just wing it, make it up as we go.
My tucker hauling trailer is out there already, otherwise I'd just take the tucker sno cat out there and skid full tree lengths out to the trail with it (maybe next time).
