There is always a better plan. And even if you still want to do that "manageable first cut" crap, you don't need 15 people. 3-4 would be more than enough for the distance of travel and it's not like carrying a log is particularly hard work.
It's not as efficient use as you've put forward, but it's still better than what they're currently doing while maintaining a level of cushy-ness that shouldn't be tolerated for what is essentially rescue/recovery work.
Just an example off the top of my head, not necessarily the most efficient way. At least my way doesn't have people standing around, and everyone's bouncing around from problem to problem.
