Splitting up a pile of black locust and cherry for next yr, right around a 1/3 loaded into the woodshed for next winter. I'll be working on it a bit more today most likely.

It may look cold but I was sweating the whole time!good pix! cutting, splitting and stacking... in the cold and snow! my hat's off to you guys!
Spent the day repairing ruts in my driveway and making a new gravel area next to the wood pileAround 12 ton of #3
This is what happens when a buddy works at the yard. Paid for 3 but I'm sure there's over 4 on it. Had to nudge it up with the bucket. #2 crushed blue stone
Goes on her own after a lift of about 2 ft. Glad the dump has a 12 ft wired remote
Ready for more #2 crushed blue stone
Tomorrow I'll finish it off
Got stuck dumping the first load . Had to pull it out with my buddies dozer. So I was putting on the tire chains when I backed in till I had the base down Pain in the butt taking them on and off going to the quarry. I need another work truck and a bigger dump trailer
I took out the topsoil/mud till I got down to clay then filled .
5 hours today picking, sorting, cutting, splitting and delivering 3 full cords.

I like your trailer, that winch setup looks like what I wanna make up. What’s the weight rating?

Do you have a ramp setup or just tilt the bed to drag big ones in?

woodchuckcanuk: What processor are you running? What is the power plant for it?
ss396driver: Nice. Did something similar and well worth the time and expense. I was tracking mud everywhere, including the gravel wood lot, the garage apron, and into the garage itself. It travels everywhere.

With our area in for some possible snow (the new forecast is 7 inches) I decided that it was time to check some of our trails. Everything was fine until the west end of our biggest ravine, mother nature took a cherry down so I opened it up and brought some of the rounds home.
Picture 9989 is one of our main trails, and the rest are of the ravine or looking down in it.

Not sure which model but I think it's one of these ones.

Sometimes I use the gate as a ramp but on bigger logs I use this I modified it with a few uprights so the log tracks
But I haven't used it in a while found it easier to drag the wood up to it with the kubota . Lift one end with a chain on the front bucket and then just push it in. But that's when the tractor is staying where the wood is. I'll take some pictures next time I do it this way

There’s some rounds on the far side of the pile too. I was considering splitting the different kinds of wood and then said “screw it” to myself. 
Well worth it . I have two of my Chevy's in the barn the 68 and the 77 . Was looking around the area said to myself if something happens I can't get either out . So I killed two birds with one stone well actually like a couple of million.
