Probably to dense to burn some of the underbrush. Fire does wonders to quickly clear underbrush and get ready for new growth. But it is hard to use in dense tree growth. I’m not sure if you can do some controlled burns on your property. But I thought I would throw it out there for consideration.

My only experience is for hunting properties (FWIW).

Several folks have suggested a controlled burn, but I’m not confident in my abilities to control it. I’m of the school of thought that hard work through the use of my own hands will yield the greatest rewards. If I can get the work done with the help of modern engineering, all the better.

Admittedly, I like the idea of burning, as it returns beneficial nutrients to the soil, but I don’t want to be on the hook for burning down a neighbor’s house if it gets out of control.
