It looks like you have a neat system for handling and storing firewood. What species are you burning?

Grey Alder, not the best but its growing everywhere and on such places that is accessible with tractor and winch, have a lot of better wood but then you have to carry it to the nearest road so that is not an option. In the old days they had wires from the mountain sides down to the road and they sendt wood and other things town the wire on hooks or lighter stuff they used a pully on the wire.

Around here they call it high line logging. Your place is even steeper than mine. I only have a couple vertical rock faces, though one of them has a nice waterfall when it rains. Mostly the slopes are around 45 degrees.

They was used for much more than logging, it was a permanent setup and goods ad cheese from the summer farms in the mountains was sent down those lines.
