    carl i was wondering what the 2 little dips are in the steel going over the bunk are for ? do you find the sled better than the 2 wheel carts for pulling firewood? mink

    The dips are to place a pole in, for rolling logs up onto the bunk.

    As far as being easier, it really has to do with skid distance. I use the cart for distances up to 1000′, but any distance over 1000′ I find the cart to be inefficient…just can’t put on enough for the turn time. The sled is another beast altogether. Twitching logs into a central location then loading them onto the sled seems the only way to harvest logs on long skids without using a tractor.
