Looking to cut a trail from the front part of my property to the back part for my Mule. I'm located in East Texas It's a mixe of pine and hardwoods should be pretty easy to do. I've got a plan to do the actual clearing but want to have the trail easily marked for use.

What markers/reflectors does the OB use and reccommend?

TIA

I need to do the same thing for my property. I was considering hiring someone with a skid steer and forestry mulcher to make a wide trail all around the property lines. You can rent a skid steer with that attachment, but if you’re not very experienced with it, it may be cheaper to pay someone else. my back is too messed up to spend weeks blazeing a trail with a chainsaw. I’ll be interested to see what other folks recommend.

Blue spray paint for marking both sides of lane to show path and cut everything in between.

Use flagging / tape once cut on both sides until you are familiar.

Tear down all flags on left side of lane..tape/ flag right side of lane on way in.


Easy to tell guests… remember follow right side in and left side out

Skid steer with a ground pounder/ mulcher is the key

I would just get some 1 1/4” PVC and cut into about 4’ sections. You can sink in the ground, paint it any color, write on it with a sharpie for mile markers, put reflective tape on it, etc.

Sorry baw, I misunderstood your post. Thought you were asking how to clear it.

The tape and spray paint makes alot of sense.
