I'm looking for some advice before investing in some equipment. I'm working with a developer who is looking to get an abandoned airstrip back up and operating. Its still mostly cleared aside from a few trees having grown in the middle and more loose rock than you would want on an unpaved strip. The airstrip is just shy of 3000ft and in total about a 150ft wide. The developer also has about 5 miles of dirt road that is usually patched and maintained once a year. These are usually just isolated patches rather than the whole road.
We've been having talks about buying a small dedicated grader for this work but also considering a skid steer to have the choice of attachments from buckets, broom, and a grader. We're leaning towards the skid steer because of the versatility but also want to be sure that is the right move. I don't have any experience with skid steers. Would this be too big of a job for such a machine? If not, any suggestions on what machines to look at? This is fairly remote so looking to stay away from anything too electronic.
