I've got just over 26 acres in Connecticut. I'm pleased to have this but wish it was closer to 100 acres.

I see the A vary from large to small and can only sit and imagine what your land looks like. From your discriptions they seem like great places. No matter what kind of land it is they are treasures to us that is for sure. I have 64 acres with one slope being 170 high. With land that is in the breaks or hills country you actually get more land because they measure by a straight line not up and down with grade of the land. I know you know that but just saying. So a small peice of this land is bigger of land mass.

Only 5 acres....... a meadow and lots of pines...... even some cherry trees. I wish it was 500 acres.
I dont know how i will fit a huge garden , barn , pasture, well and septic and the cabin on this property. I would also love a 1/4 acre pond.......... that would be perfect !!

80 acres of high desert. Year round creek running through the property, with year round, barely, spring.
We have sage, bitter brush, juniper, mountain mahogany and some remnants of willow, aspen and berry bushes that we will try to nurture back.
The land is mostly rock with septic being almost impossible. We will use compost outhouses with buckets in the cabins. Eventually there will be 3 cabins about 1000ft from each other.

We have 403 acres of hills, canyons and trees with a spring fed stream through it! Lots of wildlife to keep my trail cameras busy!
So many perfect places to put a cabin that I haven't decided yet!
160 acres of this was homesteaded by my great grandfather in 1879 so is a special place to us!

Wow that sounds pleasant and family history to boot. (The little subsistence 640 acre farm I was raised on and was in the family since 1900 has been swallowed up by a South African mega farmer. Still bitter!) Makes it so much more special.
Can I ask what type of trail cameras you have? Any photos?
Farfromhome: Yours sounds tremendous too. Your outhouse is the same size as our mini cabin!!!LoL

Ours is 2.5 acres of dense bush...with one our great lakes at the end of the road.
We had 70 acres of bush for six years...but my wife is a "water girl" and I love the bush...so...as we all know...we compromise so that we can spend time together with our partners in a place that we both enjoy....so we sold that to buy the place we're at now.
She got her "big water" down the road, where she goes for her morning walk and coffee (and the kids swim) and evening glass of red wine....OK I tag along too......and now I have a forest of my own to nurture.
Not sure about the rest of you folks...but if you want to be near the water in Ontario (not on...near) the price goes way up and the acreage goes way down! We were just so happy to find something that made us all, inc. the kids...happy.

bushbunkie: Have they been able to get rid of those zebra mussels in Ontario yet? Geesh when we lived there you had to wear rubber shoes in the water or get your feet sliced up. I think they are limited to the Great Lakes though.

I have HCO Scoutguard Model SG 550 cameras and also the older model of Bushnell Trophy Cam's Model 119425's. They are great camera's but the newer models of Bushnell had some major problems. I have returned three that were defective. I think they changed manufacturers and made some bad modifications. That may be fixed now! Go to chasingame.com for latest tests on all make cameras!
I do have lots of pics of deer, bobcat, coyote, coon and even an albino possum! I haven't tried to upload pics on this site but can e-mail you some if you want!
I also have a pic of the old dugout with the "new" sod house beside it!

Thanks for the info. I will look into them. We have set up a salt lick on our trail system that seems to be heavily used. It would be kind of neat to put up a trail camera there.
I suspect others would be interested in the images too. Maybe you could post them as a new thread or on the existing nature photo thread.
