It was very generous of them to give you a 30" easement...can't say I would clear 30' of their timber if you don't need it, though. I would probably wait until they thin or harvest and then try to establish a wider road then.

If they give it.. You take it. My FIL is a land surveyor and he was just telling me the other day that if you get into a lawsuit down the road that the judges go by a use it or lose it mentality. If you have a right of way and never use it or fail to keep it up it will not hold up in court. How this is idk but that's what he told me.

They clearcut it a couple years ago and it is just weeds, briar and light scrubbrush now except for the actual roadbed and a few oaks scattered about. The contract states that I cannot cut down any trees and 30' is wider than I need. But now is the time to carve out a wide path if there are any benefits to it. Once "trees" grow there, it's too late.
