That is one way to clear land. Maybe next time just see if they will help you with a controlled burn?
Best thing about our farm is our creek. It is our northern property line and we only have about 500 feet due to the shape of the property. Looks like you have a good bit more land than we do.
It was definitely an interesting day. I felt like I was being safe. Next time I will make multiple control lines before burning and have invested in more hose. We have a little over 4 acres, so it's not too huge but big enough for us to have a small farm. The creek on the southern end is about 750 feet and we also have a creek on the west and east end of the property. We are pretty much surrounded on three sides by creeks.
