Land Clearing InHibbing, MN
Iron Range second growth comes in thick. We clear lots, hunting land and lake property around Hibbing with a forestry mulcher, year round.
Clearing Land Around Hibbing
Hibbing is Iron Range mine country, and the woods here are almost all second growth. Popple, birch, balsam and jack pine have filled back in over land that was cut, burned, mined or farmed at one time or another. It grows dense and it grows fast. Land clearing in Hibbing usually means cutting through that kind of young, crowded timber and the hazel and alder under it. A forestry mulcher is built for it. Stems go into the head standing up and come out as chips on the ground. See land clearing for how we approach a whole parcel.
North of town the roads lead to lake country. Side Lake and the Sturgeon chain are lined with cabins, and the lots are wooded right down to the water. Cabin owners need help when the driveway has narrowed, when there is no room to park a trailer, or when they are adding a garage. We can get a tracked machine into most cabin lots without tearing up the yard. Close to shore, check with St. Louis County or the DNR on what can be cut. Back from the lake, lot clearing is simple.
What We Clear In Hibbing
Then there is the hunting land. Families around Hibbing have held forties and eighties for generations, and many of those parcels have not seen a saw in a very long time. Trails are grown shut. Old openings are solid popple whips. We reopen them with hunting land clearing, and the mulch we leave keeps the trail from turning to mud. Cherry Township and the farm country south of town also have old fields worth saving. Winter is a fine time for all of it. The ground is hard and the swamps will carry a machine.

Hibbing Questions
Do you come up to Hibbing and the Iron Range?
Yes. Hibbing is in St. Louis County, which is part of our regular service area, and we take jobs across the Range. Call or text (218) 461-7376. Calvin will set a time to meet you at the property, walk it and give you a free estimate.
Can you get a machine into a tight cabin lot north of Hibbing?
Most of the time. The loader is compact, runs on tracks and turns in its own length. We need a driveway or path wide enough to unload and get in. If the only way in is narrow, we can often widen it as the first step of the job. Send photos if you are unsure.
Does mulching work on old mine land and rocky fill near Hibbing?
It works on the brush growing there. Ground that was disturbed long ago often has loose rock, scrap iron and uneven fill under the popple, and that slows the work. We go carefully on that kind of site. Also be sure of who owns it, since a lot of land near the pits belongs to mining companies.
