Looking at grabbing these first then go from there. Looks like we have another 8-10 Cherry that are down or up rooted after this.

Looks like some of yours are on pretty steep hills as well.
Any tricks for getting where the tractor / 4 wheeler won't go?
I shoulder carry many pieces up hill when there's no other choice.

If I can winch them up I'll try that first then second would be bucking them up and rolling them downhill.

Is that winch on a truck / 4 wheeler or tied to another tree?
I use a wheelbarrow sometimes as well - we got an old one from my wife's grandfather with a steel wheel - that thing is great, and the tire never needs slime!
I usually can't roll downhill - my place is uphill both directions.

It's a 3000 lb warn winch on the rhino so it will only do so much.

Dang those are some nice beech in those first pictures. They also are one of the easiest to see at this time of the year. Just look for a tree that is still covered with brown leaves. lol
