You will need a bulldozer to take out stumps probably. Also, an excavator works wonders on stumps as well.
I have kinda similar needs. I am buying another compact tractor because this will serve as a company tractor and we work in tight quarters. Also, on my wooded land it is so thick that a utility or medium sized tractor would be hard to swing around. We have Yupon around here and that stuff is like razors on springs, gotta be careful.
I'm looking at a 50hp tractor because I'm reading they can use a 10 ft brush hog. I'm not to familiar with skid steers but I've only seen them with like 5 or 6 ft mowers on them. Something to think about. It would be cool though with the skid steer to vertically hit tree branches with the mower since it is up front and you can lift it; if possible don't know. Also it is a little more shielded in the cab.
If the land isn't too thick I'd get a medium sized tractor with 50hp minimal. Little more umph.
Also a good basic compact in that hp to look is the Kubota MX line. Kubota seems to have a good dealer network.
