Managing your woodland for a suite of objectives will require your active participation in a number of subject areas, some of which you'll engage with ease and others that will challenge your brain and (yikes!) your budget.
Depending on background and personality, some folks quickly master tree identification techniques while floundering with how to negotiate a contract with a forester, mill, logger, or all three. Another landowner readily excels at handling his personal forestry tax situation but winces at having to properly consider the seeming complexity of BMP (Best Management Practices) application within his property.
To many private landowners, the idea of building a road in the forest is sobering, if not down-right intimidating, and rightly so. Road building often conjures up visions of criss-crossing scars in the soil, regulators in orange vests, and mile-high pieces of excavation equipment relocating piles of earth.
Your forest road, however, needs none of these specters. Forest roads can be planned, managed, and implemented with careful commitment and smart contracts.
