You haven't lived until you've used wedges to get some planks out of a log to build something.

Yes. I prefer a cone wedge, a mauler to drive it and railroad ties to hold open a long log while wprking down.. Then i follow up choping the long log(e, thats been split long ways)

My other favorite tool is a folding pull-back saw. These can cut a 12" tree down faster than a sharp full axe. But i use it for mainly 4" and more narrow and clearing brush from a ground surface(prior to setting up a tent, or clearing an area)

Two vertical trees close together or two trees fallen makes for a good ''treelimb break''(like a sheet metal break, i alude) and if available i try to make use of it. Its fun to try not fall and bust a big log with leverage and body weight.
