i'll second the come-a-long..i used one for pulling lodged trees down when i was cutting in my woodlot years ago.one AM i woke to find my lane to the village street was snowed in.i made the mistake of trying to bull my way down in a honda accord and went off sideways,i had done that before with better luck.the come-a-long pulled me back on the lane and in my office clothes i ran one path with the snow blower for the right side drive wheel and made it to work just a bit late.
