I haven't gotten to that area yet. Last year, my neighbor bought a dump trailer and he spent months working on his side of the line. He built that area up several feet, to fix a huge erosion issue that was caused from loggers and other people driving there when it was wet. Then he planted it all in Bermuda that's really looking good right now.
I've been focusing on the other end of the fence that's not on the map. It was a thick jungle that I've cleared and then I found a huge ditch that ran almost on the property line. My goal is to make the fence so both of us can mow either side of it easily, and not risk having any trees fall on the fence. He loves this idea and I'm allowed to take out every tree that I want to do this. It's become a much bigger project then I anticipated.
I'm also building an attached three car garage onto my house. While doing both of these projects, and my wife's never ending "must do" projects that come up almost weekly, my brother got sick and then passed away. He had 40 aces with livestock and a a bunch of stuff that I had to deal with. Just recently I got to the point that I could get back to work on my garage and the fence.
I have an added push to get the fence done because I'm keeping some of his cattle, and I want them to be here. Fortunately, the grass on his place is growing a lot faster then my place, and it's better to keep them there as long as possible. I'm feeding my goats and horses hay at my place, and the cattle are eating pasture grass while the last bale I put out is rotting away.
For the area that I started this thread about, I'm comfortable with where I believe the property line to be. My neighbor and I put a temporary post where we think the line is and and I've done several measurements to see how accurate it is. I think it's within an inch or two of being on the line. Since my posts are 6 inches thick, this is about as good as it can get.
