Moonlighting, in the literal sense.

Chop the trees. Make the quota.
Get back to the truck alive.

Before you clock in

Chop

Trees are your wages and your levels. Nothing else pays.

Deliver

Only wood on the truck counts. Dying deep loses the load.

Burn

Throw a torch for light; feed it to hold the ground.

Call the truck

When dire wolves arrive, follow the site marker deeper into the woods. Clear the marked ring and build a campfire there by throwing a torch and feeding it. Once quota is in hand, stand in the ring and the truck is called after a short count; step out to cancel. Then defend for 60 seconds. Be inside the ring when it arrives to bank your carried wood, and any stacked inside the ring, and end the night. If you are outside, the truck waits for you.
