Sounds very complicated and expensive to be getting in lots of machinery you don't have. Just get your groundy(s) to mtfu and get on with it.

 

Winch the timber up. Use a speedline alongside it if the customer is delicate about the ground and it'll stop the timber from dragging.

That's got to be one of the most honest statements on here😀. Have you gone firm with a plan yet?

Looks like a field behind the bottom fence? Are there any access points for van to get closer?, if not drag brash and arb trolley the logs.

 

Or burn a small fire onsite :P

 

No field at bottom. Just more gardens. Might be asking a bit much of my groundy to haul a loaded Arb trolley up a 1:3 slope :-D

Will probably try an avant, but one that the 4x4 is definitely working on.

Cheers.

May try a chance to try an avant on some smaller stuff on the same site on Friday. Big tree is waiting until I am back from holiday.

 

HI AL GOOD TO SEE YOU MATE at show can you not winch it out mate on a ARB TROLLEY thanks jon :thumbup:

I think the front would keep digging into the slope if I tried winching, as it is pretty steep.

 

HI AL you can get a cone to onto the timber so when winching it does not dig into ground thanks jon :thumbup:
