Cheap tractor , cheap forestry winch.. should allow you to deal with any future problem, I would very rarely do Wood land work with out one. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F283058101893

Fortunately I'm retired this is all to keep the wood burner going through the howling gales of coming winters!

If you do go down the Tirfor route, have a look at Ace winches. Every bit as good IMO and much cheaper.
