I don't plan to build anything big enough (and safe enough) support
the weight of kids or adults.  One "bundle" of green oak firewood is
about all I plan to drag up the hill.  Maybe 60 lbs at most.  I don't
plan to build a funicular tram, trolley or cable car:

However, some of the kits and DIY project look interesting:

Incidentally, seasoned oak firewood weighs about 6,000 lbs.  I'll be
lifting 2 cords or 12,000 lbs.  If I burn firewood 180 days/year, that
will be roughly 67 pounds per day to lift.
