Great little side project before it gets too hot. I’m glad to hear mother and son are doing great. Between watching you and Mike Morgan on his channel using grapples on your tractors I don’t know why anyone would ever go without. They’re so multi functional and a definite time/back saver !! Looking forward to your next video and stay safe.
Yeah we wanted to get that done and be able to camp atleast once without having to cover ourselves in bug spray. Bugs aren’t too bad yet but I can tell it’s gonna be a bad year for bugs with such a mild winter
Hometown Acres - I agree, there’s nothing that can ruin an enjoyable camping trip more than bugs. Do you have black flies and deer flies in your area ? I didn’t mention mosquitoes as those things are everywhere !!!
Hometown Acres My previous house was on 2 acres in the middle of the woods and deer flies were a huge nuisance. My second year there, in the spring once it warmed, I went to the dollar store and bought a bunch of the sticky fly strips and put them in the trees around my perimeter for about 2 weeks and swapping them out when needed. It was a bit unsightly but for the most part they wiped out the deer flies so that the outdoors could be enjoyable.
@@HometownAcres a friend of mine has a similar setup on his property. He did a split rail fence which looks pretty nice. Once it weathers it will blend in with the trees.
My place has a very similar terrain feature around 75% of it. The views are fantastic with sounds of water way down below. However, falling at any of these places spells either a bad day or the end of your days. The property is gentle until you reach its borders. We don't have any kids so we've not considered fencing the area. However if family ever camps with us then it might be a good idea. We are working on clearing a similar spot minus the help of a tractor. My back hurts though.
Good work Adam, camping on your own property is great, we have done it ever since we bought ours back in 1999. We are to old for sleeping on the ground now, so I built a gypsy wagon near one of our creeks , now it feels like camping with all the comforts of home, kitchen, bathroom, composting toilet, it even powered by our own hydro electric generator.
Good job Adam, you’re gonna enjoy your camping area. Might set up a couple barrels of water as a just incase. Them older forests with lost of leaves and needles will smolder after you put the fire out unless you drown it really good around the fire pit too. Sure would hate to see your forest gone. Be safe and enjoy your family! Fred.
Man I’d love a grapple. Brush removal at its best !! Gonna make a great camp site and all right there in your own back yard !! Creek under the bluff adds a nice touch too. Good job Adam.
Thanks Wendell, it was a fun little project to switch things up a bit. Always good to take a break from firewood for a bit and do something different. Won’t be long til we’re back into firewood though haha
A beautiful spot for camping! That will be nice to camp on your own land. As your family grows sure to be well used. Nice grapple!, great job Buddy! I’m getting caught up on the videos I missed. Our WiFi was messed up for about a month.
Sweet camping spot dude! Have the ability to camp as a stay-cation at home is the best...just make sure when you go for the late night bathroom break ya walk the opposite direction of that drop off to the creek...lol. Your videos keep me thinking more and more about a grapple attachment!! hahahaha 👍🍻😀
Beautiful man. Drop some cedars and build a small fence near that cliff. Hate to see someone fall at night especially the little ones. You have a post digger for the Kubota?
If your kioti is like my 35 hp hydro se , it won't spin the tires under a load . I can set my 5ft box blade rippers all the way down and the blade just touching the ground and hit hard ground mine will stop pulling . I wish I would have gone with shuttle shift for more power to the ground pulling.
If I’m in low gear I can usually spin the tires if I have some good resistance. I am rarely on solid enough ground that the tires stick and the engine bogs down. I would be real interested to drive a shuttle just to see what the actual difference is. I’ve only ever operated hydro
@@HometownAcres I need to have a dealer to check mine out then it will only bog the engine a little in low gear and stops just like a clutch is slipping but it doesn't have a clutch.
@@leroywilson6681 yeah I would get it checked out. I had a little 30hp hst and it would spin the tires all day long if I had the 2 bottom plow buried. I recently bought a new 5310 se hst 50hp) and I REALLY love it.
You need a different style root rake for a compact tractor to be able to root rake. Those tines are way too big. Check out the BRG by Armstrong or the Wicked Grapple. Much thinner tines and a different configuration so that you can get in the ground 4-6 inches.

We have deer flies but not black flies. And yes mosquitos and ticks

So jealous. That’s is a great piece of property. I think that’s a great idea for putting a camp site there for the family
Thanks Kevin. We will definitely enjoy it
Man I am jealous of your property. That creek view is real nice.
Just trying to figure out a way to make sure nobody falls down it. It’s probably a good 100 foot drop. That ravine was cut out by glaciers
find some old dead trees and line the edge. or maybe a fence from some smaller stuff?

Nice project and a nice spot. Great family time spot for your family.

That’s pretty awesome. I thought about putting a composting toilet in the cabin if we end up doing that
@@HometownAcres I'll send uou a couple of pictures
Looks like such nice land for a small camping area. Reminds me of my younger years. I really enjoy watching your videos. Thank you.
Thanks for watching. Glad you find them enjoyable!
Awesome campsite Adam, that would be a nice cabin location for sure 👍

Not a bad idea Fred. An once of prevention is worth a pound of cure. As always thanks for watching and commenting! Stay safe and healthy!

Man I like that spot for a camp site. Nice work done. Full-watch.
Thanks Buddy, glad you enjoyed it. Stay safe!
Good video Adam👍
We would love to see a video of you guys camping back there! This is my dream some day to own land and be able to do fun projects like this.
I think we’ll have to do a video when we get it up and running!
A beautiful spot for camping! That will be nice to camp on your own land. As your family grows sure to be well used. Nice grapple!, great job Buddy! I’m getting caught up on the videos I missed. Our WiFi was messed up for about a month.
Great sight for a camp ! Enjoy !!!
💥 Nice to have discovered your channel. I’m really surprised I haven’t found your channel before. I liked and subscribed! 👍
*Keep on tractoring!*
Sweet camping spot dude! Have the ability to camp as a stay-cation at home is the best...just make sure when you go for the late night bathroom break ya walk the opposite direction of that drop off to the creek...lol. Your videos keep me thinking more and more about a grapple attachment!! hahahaha 👍🍻😀
It’ll change your life. Grapples really shine doing firewood work
Great tractor therapy 😊👍and great spot for camping !! Cheers !!!😊
Thanks!
Looks like a great spot !
Definitely a nice spot for a campsite.
It’ll definitely do. We’ll probably still go on a camping trip or 2 during the year but it will be nice to have the option of just camping at home
I have the Land Pride grapple on my B2601. Not super great for roots but still the best attachment I own. Great job!
Great location for a campsite!
Great spot! Looks good 🔥👍🤠
Beautiful man. Drop some cedars and build a small fence near that cliff. Hate to see someone fall at night especially the little ones. You have a post digger for the Kubota?
Yeah that was my only concern with that ravine is somebody falling down it. It’s probably a solid 100ft drop almost straight down
A landscape take would be useful for that kind of clearing.
Im waiting for you to do a full review on that grapple. :)
I spent about 6 hours running it today. I will definitely make a review video once I’ve had a chance to fully test it and get to know it
Great site,

You definitely should put up a barrier or fence along that cliff if you’re going to have people running around out there.
That will look nice
Nice, What size Rake is that 66" ??
72”
Adam u might need to put up a fence up because that creek is a long way down u no what young kids r like.

Could I get the make and model of your grapple?
Stephens attachment root rake grapple.
Glamping could be in your future. Run the numbers.
I hope there is a firewood supplier close by! HAha!
I think I know a guy haha
❤👍 Serbia
is that as steep as it really looks on the video?
First.
