trail clearing technique and tools

[Hay Dude]

Thought you guys might want a break from cross country skiing photos.

Not a trail but a fence line.
Big mess

One got me.

15’ tall stickers, vines and a couple Russian Olive trees all tangled into one big snarly mess.
Hard to believe there was once a fence in there.

Looks like a fence clearing job for a flamethrower.

Looks like there's a pretty good sized tree waiting to fall on that house.

I'd like to see this thread about trails, trail care and the tools to keep them up. Feel free to start your own thread about other subjects.

All threads wander into related areas. I see you and other TBN’rs changing the subject on other peoples threads.

Yep, swung around on me and caught my arm. Anytime you start clearing with a brush cutter, you never know what’s in there.

I don’t know if that’s one of the millions of dead ash trees around here or not.

And it looks like they've already cut off several limbs.

Looks like they need to whittle a few more off pretty soon.
