how do I move wood up a 50 foot incline.?

I don't have a 4x4 truck and the incline is grassy and has loose dirt . I have walked up about half a cord of wood but would like to be more efficient and not kill myself or my helper. I do have a mid size truck but it can not go down this hill because of the soil it wouldn't make it back up. We have also thrown the wood up half way and then the other person throws the wood up the other half. We have a lot of wood to move and really need good suggestions. Thank you in advance

    If you have at least 3 wheels or some other cylinder-shaped object and some rope, I suppose you could make one big bundle and tie one end of the rope to the truck to have it pull the wood while keeping at least two of the rollers under the wood, similar to how the Ancients did it.

    Failing rollers like that, a wheelbarrow might work instead to get the wheel action.
