An improved timber jack for raising and supporting logs off from the ground has an elongated lever arm handle member supporting a fulcrum at a distal end of the handle creating a lever of the first class. The novelty resides in having an arcuate fulcrum such that applying a force at a proximal end of the handle causes the fulcrum to roll on the ground as the log is being lifted. Less effort is required to lift a given load as compared to conventional timber jacks.
