But, we get a lot of ice and freezing rain, and I doubt that the pulley
would really function well, if at all in the winter.

I use a marine pulley. It is rated at 700 LBS, its housing is made of
stainless steel and the wheel is nylon. I have a 200+ foot span
between some very high fir trees. These suckers really whip around
when those Pacific winter storms hit. Mine system has been up for over
ten years with out any mishaps.
