What I did, is what I do once or twice a week... during my lunch I searched the web and FB Marketplace looking for "local" people who do tree work, land clearing, forestry mulching etc etc.
It would seem it's cheaper to BUY an acre of land, than it is to have someone cut down the saplings and brush on it.
The other problem I have is getting estimates. Obviously they want to set up an appointment to walk the property with you and see what you want done. Being 5 hours away (one way), that's a problem. Lots of time and money spent, assuming I can get free and/or actually get there. But especially so only to have someone not show up or cancel on me. So I spent some time today looking at satellite photos, looking at photos I have from the ground, seeing if there was some way I could create a detailed "proposal" of sorts and send it to them. Send it to someone and say "go look, then give me an estimate on doing A, B, C, D...". Part of the problem (besides knowing this is the last thing I should be spending money on) is that I don't know WHAT I want done, or at least what's more important, what I want done first.
So like most days, I accomplished nothing other than getting frustrated.
