Great resource Aaron. Using the calculator you posted, it puts the log in my picture at over 800 pounds. Again, just 3 guys. We rolled it, and lifted it using a little help with leverage and a lot of determination. The other 2 guys were small too, just teenagers, maybe 150 pounds each. I'm pretty big and work out (6'2" - 210lbs) but I was recovering from a knee surgery so wasn't at full strength when we harvested it. I think you could do it with 3-4 guys. Just take it slow. We had other smaller logs stacked at the end of the truck and just kept getting one end higher until it was even with the bed, then... we pushed. haahaa
