Building and maintaining trails is a never ending chore.
Get yourself a compact
tractor, doesn't have to be new. 4wd is good but not essential. A front loader
is worth its weight in gold. Also you need a box blade and a brush mower at a
minimum.

You don't always love and support me? I'm quite disappointed.
Well sure, of course I love and support you no matter how wrongheaded
you are!
A silver maple grows quickly, drops limbs everywhere, and dies quickly. The sugar maple doesn't.
My tractor has 5' attachments and all my trails will accommodate it, along with
my Kawasaki Teryx.
The Real Bev gushes:
Well sure, of course I love and support you no matter how wrongheaded
you are!
The feeling is mutual sweety.
today I'm blowing off work a bit early
