For you folks with remote or hunting property. If you could only have one piece of equipment to:
-mow
-cut/maintain trails
-light grade smooth dirt
-haul drag brush, small cut trees
What would you recommend?
Limitations:
-cost (lower budget)
-storage...would need to be transported for weather exposure and security.
-mostly woodland, with a few trails and old farm mining roads, possible small garden plot.
-I've been amazed at what I have been able to do with my 4WD and some creative and careful rigging. Pulling cut stumps, dragging brush etc.
-With that said, thoughts wander towards a trail (pull behind) mower. Anywhere I would want to mow, I can drive my 4wd for example. The mower from home would take forever.
-Would a small land plane work behind a 4wd?
I realize a tractor with the right implements covers most of the above, but that is out of budget for now, so there's the question.
Fire away...
