A device for picking up and hauling a log or similar object and a method for its use are disclosed. The device is capable of picking up one end of the log and dragging the log behind it, but is also capable of picking up the entire log off the ground. The device can be anchored to and pulled behind a small vehicle, such as an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) or utility vehicle (UTV), or behind a large vehicle such as a car or truck. The device uses no winches or hydraulics that could break or wear out, and lifts and holds the log solely using levers and chains as attachment points. The device is able to maneuver over rugged terrain and is also able to be towed at high speeds on a road.
