I can relate I chase sparks for a living but I sure enjoy a good LD18 video.

Soon as Chris mentions old round river bed rocks and a quartz vein..., viewers start thinking "Thar's gold in dem dere hills! Quick set up a trammel!!! Get out the pan and sluice box.. Motherlode!!!!We're gonna have ourselves a bonanza! Good job on the mulcher bro, you'll have it down to science by the time you're finished.

[@johnbeck9997]

That is just what I thought when I heard Quartz. LOL

[@markpashia7067]

And us crystal guys go all quartz mining!!! But seriously large quartz matrix rocks for landscaping could bring in a nice second income stream. And cross over videos with other KZbin channels could also bring some extra funds to him as well. Sure are a lot of the new age crowd that would want big quartz boulders in their front yards. Pay big bucks for a couple of basketball size ones for a driveway pair. Just a thought. PS those hills had a gold rush back around the civil war at one time, so it is not totally nuts to think that. The only thing that stopped it was a bigger rush to Georgia. Still could be some yellow there.

[@oldschoolhoosier]

You’re right Chris….This is the time for tics, chiggers and red bugs. I am like a magnet to this critters. That’s why I spray my cloths down with a chemical then allow them to dry in the sun before wearing them. the chemical stays on the cloths through 4 or 5 washings. This is great for early deer season with bows.

[@dale5898]

Quartz is an indicator of gold possibly near by. However don’t hold your breath!

[@AncientHermit]

It's neat to see you work at a slightly less intense pace, I guess because you are not up against any definite deadlines. You seem more relaxed and have time to do the work as you want it, rather than driven to do something to meet a target. It's subtle, but I think it is there. Looking forward to more as and when time allows. Be well Chris. ;)

[@rondastump8930]

Luv watching the mulcher!!! Certainly cleans up land quickly and makes it beautiful among the trees!!! Exciting to see ur farm being renewed after being neglected for so long. God's blessings and thank u so much for video!!!

[@bennetts-revenge_2]

That's cool that you got to work some on your new property Chris. I like seeing the mulcher chop stuff down to the ground. Since I don't know squat about mulching I was wondering why on some if the thicker trees you put the mulcher to the side of it instead of the top. I'm naturally curious about how machines work so I ask questions.

[@shaneherman8906]

Hey Chris. Always glad to get the notifications from your channel.

[@richardherring8220]

Chris, it's neat to see how the different type and size trees react to the mulcher, It seems like the gums and maples act way different than the pines, hardwood seem easier to mulch down !

[@mattwisniewski4896]

Fantastic job Chris on the new Property, I know you are excited to clear some paths, great Video.

[@kevinballuff1164]

Holy crap, I think your figurin might be close, old river bottom or somethin of the sort with all those rocks. I hardly doubt if someone dumped old fill dirt there at one time. Altho there doesn't seem to be any huge old trees there, looks like most of them aren't over 20 years old. Gotta edit and add one more thing, that mulcher sure beats the hell out of doing it the old fashioned way

[@budcollins4190]

I like watching Chris mulch as I find it interesting seeing it go from overgrown to wide open space

[@shitloveaduck]

Using a rock picker gets down into the soil a little better and doesn’t take the soil off like a grader can. The grader will scrape off the next layer of rocks and it will seem like they grew!! 😂. Your farm tractor is big enough for a small to mid sized unit,,, more than enough for the farm you have. They are easy to find as rentals here, I’m not sure about there. There are many farms with a big ole rock pile in one corner from clearing the field with rock pickers each year or so, where I live now anyways in Central/Southern Alberta, Canada. That quarts vein may be a bit more of an issue of course, but pick the area and if top soil is deep enough elsewhere on the farm,,,, haul it over to where it’s just too thin. Successfully did that with a few fields we had in the foothills over the years. It nice establishing the property line, even fencing it if that works for ya. Good fences really DO MAKE good neighbours. It’s a lesson I learned early and have followed ever since. It has stopped a few property discrepancies right off when I had purchased new land.

Hell, it already is to me !! I love Big Ol' farms, which I was raised on a couple in WV., It gets in ya blood when you have a farm or farms, always something to do or fix, or get in too !! lolol.... Wonder if any of those rocks in that field could be "Indian Artifacts" Chris ?? Have ya seen anything else?? any arrowheads or anything like that ?? Just a thought.... Well, Great as always Chris !! Have a Great Evening Man !! and, On too the Next......

[@mslorry3420]

When he talked about the vain of quartz alone the edge I was thinking that's another group of folks to attract to a stay in the cabins.

[@wayupnort6271]

I noticed you had better luck by tilting the mulcher up and coming at the stuff at an angle vs. coming straight down on it.👍🏻 Always a learning curve. Nice work! Looking good.

[@rdon53]

rocks and vegetation, can't live with them, can't live without them, guess your the great harmonizer, that's a new one.

[@deanhanchett379]

Love the videos, better than watching TV for sure! Just a thought, but I’ve always thought that wherever there is quartz, there can be found gold. Keep the awesome videos coming!

[@brianbabb6666]

You will have to keep an eye out for one of those skid steer mulcher those are impressive. I hired a guy to do some clearing with one and was amazed. It was a 6' wide version of that one on excavator he would just drive right through trees like that and left mulch. I piled it up using tractor and box blade now have nice rich compost from it.

[@rodneywroten2994]

thanks for sharing

[@Vickie-Bligh]

It'll be nice to get the property lines all opened up & fenced in. How fortuitous that you had gates located where you did to access this property. It's gonna look nice, Chris.

[@markpashia7067]

I suspect that Chris put those gates in as a way to manifest what he wanted. Pretty sure he wanted that piece of ground for a while now.

[@Vickie-Bligh]

@@markpashia7067 Agree. I was being a bit tongue in cheek there. He said he's been trying for 5 years to get it. But the gate was also so he could maintain the other side of the fence (good excuse).

[@DougT25427]

I’ve seen skid steer mounted drum mulchers work through stuff like on this farm. Watching them work is a real treat. In very little time they can have acres cleared. In a few days’ time using one of those mulchers Chris would not have any more mulching left to do on the farm. The downside is they are not cheap if you get a real nice one and not every skid steer has the capability of running the better drum mulchers.

[@FSEAirboss]

Noticed that Mister Chris is getting better at shooting those sticks over to the neighbors side! 😆

[@Chris_In_Texas]

Glad your clearing out all those ATV and motorcycle trails Chris! If you only knew someone who could make some ramps and jumps and other fun stuff with some dirt! Maybe get that loose bucket... I mean dirt perfect guy to stop by. 😁👍😂

[@markpashia7067]

Lets see, quartz and round river cobbles? Sounds like GOLD country to me. Might need to do some prospecting there Chris. Shoot, that farm could pay for itself before even growing anything!!! Even without gold, large quartz landscaping rocks could bring a good income and he has the equipment laying around. Time to think outside the box when some easy money is on the table. And a road of that stuff sounds fun. Chris's own golden pathway! Sparkling in the sunlight with quartz scattered throughout. Dang dude. Sounds more fun that growing crops or raising cattle. If nothing else there could be some cross over KZbin videos out there with other channels who specialize in prospecting or even crystals. Just like found money.

Hello there Chris 🚧🔥🚧. You've got a big piece of land. That is usually a good investment

The finer grains of the soil sink down and the rocks end up on top. There are places in the UK where this has been going on for millennia (literally). At least you will never be short of hardcore.

Growing up on a rock farm in Saskatchewan, I learned that stones were a perennial crop. They didn’t need fertilizer, they didn’t need to be watered and they grew year after year no matter how many you picked. The only downside was, there was no market for them. In latter years that changed when the trend changed and all the rich city dwellers had rocks in their yards and all the poor farmers still had stones in their fields.

Now that is is down a brush hog will do just fine. His skid steer is not high flow so you are talking a whole new major purchase without much long term need. This will get the job done without any expense but time and fuel. This is really a one time job if he keeps up with it over time and I am pretty sure he will to keep access to his fencing.
