Used, new or doesn't matter?
Is your land all pretty much level, as your avatar seems to show, or will you be working on hillsides,too?
I remember the parts of western Maine where I did some rockhounding as a teenager were very rugged/mountainous.

I'd recommend a mx4800. Should be closer to 26-27k. You might get by with a L3901 for $5k less. Best price and size for the job might be something used that starts with the letter "M".

M is what i was quoting for 33000 i could buy a decent used skidder i think

You might be able to find a decent, low hours L4240 for 25-30k.

About a year ago, I looked at a fairly low hour, fairly clean L4240 being sold by a developer who had used it mostly for mowing... no loader, but for the $13000 he wanted, adding a loader would still keep it reasonable. So, they are out there. It was too big for me.
