I couldn't agree more. I did the above mentioned cleanout this summer and there were several times I could have been seriously hurt if I had made one wrong move. I took my time and went slow in precarious situations. I grew up farming and using heavy equipment but it only takes an instant for something bad to happen.
On another note, I think 4K is a bargain. I burned a third of that in fuel doing it myself plus breakdowns and wear and tear. If you are like me, you think you need so much time but it usually turns out needing twice that much time.
