Here is a rig I used to get some logs (RED OAK) out of a tight spot ,down a ravine, Basically pulling at a right angle on the flat area about 300 feet away with two 20 ton pulleys and 400 feet of cable.......
First a couple of pics bucking fire wood outta the tops, then a double pullet line on pivot tree, and the hitch of the truck...clear as mud right?!?! Cheesy Cheesy Wish I had my lucky green loggin shirt though.......

Get me an address and you will have your shirt. Grin  You also seem to need an ATV arch to get them logs out, without scaring the ground.
