What happens here

After clearing the initial path, the farmer assesses the work. He notes that some small branches and stobs remain, requiring minor cleanup with a chainsaw and rake, but much of the remaining debris will be naturally handled by the cattle. He reiterates the importance of proper tree spacing for pine trees, explaining that close proximity can hinder growth and lead to weaker root systems. He decides to remove a few more poplar trees that are growing too close together, further widening the path. He then switches to the tooth bucket to push these additional trees and debris into existing piles, ensuring the path is wide enough for an ATV or tractor for future maintenance.

Goal: Review the cleared path, perform minor manual cleanup, remove additional small trees for optimal spacing, and use the tooth bucket to widen the path for vehicle access.

What they say

Hide

You okay? Seems destructive, right? But, look at this mess compared to what we just made right through here. Now, there's a little bit of work that needs to be done. I need to bring a little chainsaw down here and a rake and rake this out just a little bit, but the cows will help with that, also. Um the chainsaw needs to come down to help pull some of these little stobs that are hard to work with, but pretty much we've got a straight shot right down there to where we want to go. We can either cut straight through here or cut down down through here. Right there is a creek crossing and we're going to head over to the other side. This literally is only taking Well, that took me 10 minutes. I mean, bam, just got it done. Just dig dig dig dig dig, push push push. Now, pushed up one of those pines, those beautiful pines that I talked about, that I planted myself.
