I bought this 15 acres with the intent of clearing out an area to camp and maybe someday move out there. There is septic system installed and a well in place, even a few shacks.
I brought out a shipping container and dropped it in the only clearing. Then I picked up a bulldozer off of ebay. Clearing woods like this would cost about 2500$ per acre. I figured that with a bulldozer I could quietly poke around and discover/destroy any areas with drainage problems and then enlarge the clearing. The next step would be a perimeter road.
I have now decided that I need to build a home out there to enjoy the country life so the pace will be hurried.
Let's start with one of the first trips out there to do some cleaning for the container and some early camping. The kis even knows I need a brushhog. This job took a long time but I got it done.
