Yeah I’ve thought about bringing my husky on trips, not for firewood cutting but to cut fallen trees blocking logging road. The blockage doesn’t happen often enough to make me want to bring the gas powered saw, but I think I would bring a battery powered one if I had it.

Again, not for firewood, but to get access.

Everyone’s needs and experiences are different.
