When my great-grandfather built this house, all of the wood was taken from on the hill out back by horses in the winter. It was taken next door to the neighbor's sawmill. That was in the late teens. Last year, I bought timber from the neighbor, and dragged it through the same woods with a Timberjack to my mill. I think it would be fun to try a little hand logging, but only a little.
