Moved to some new property in GA and about 10 acres of the property is choked up with what we call around here "wait a minute vines" which is basically a nice way to say you ain't getting through there. I was thinking about getting a little tiny mini excavator and clearing some of the vines and doing some selected removal of a lot of the small pine trees that appear to be working on growing among the more desirable species. Only problem is the terrain is steep drainage and I know I can't get some of it but a lot of what I'm thinking about attacking is 10-15% grade. Could a mini-ex safely operate in there without having to tear up the ground too much building working pads etc? Specifically I'm looking at renting a Kubota k-008 or kx-18 size mini-ex.
