BA, understand some on the gound issue so you may not be able to but you probably could either wrap a cable or rope or such with slip knot at the base of those trees and pull them up possible with the tractor lift.

Right machine for Excavation
I had previously always called them Tags, or tag alders, untill my last post where I called them (trees under 2" .
Yes your skidsteer could handle them, yes my tractor and brush hog could also but the problem comes in again that my tractor would be burried before I could get anywhere near em. Pulling em out is not an option either since they are so small, a quick whack with a chain saw and all that is left is a ball of root system that is above the muck. This is where the excavater with a blade on it should come in handy. The idea of hand cutting and then stacking in a neat pile to be hauled away later is to avoid a huge pile of sticks,twigs, root balls
and a ugly eye sore that can be burned but still will be there for a long time. I dont mind
hauling em out by hand (since anything els with wheels woulkd get stuck.
Jis thinkin, maybe if I luck out, and the watering hole get low enough to suck most of the water over towards it that adding the spoils to the other part will help lift it high enough to make a perfect wetland/sanctuary that will not be used for a back yard football game but more like a nesting area ande cover for many birds/ mammels etc. The end picture is to have a pretty looking watering hole with grasses and cattails surrounding that from the ridge will look structured, yet still semi wild/natual? This place is set up perfect for this and if it works I will post pics. I am calling the guy with the excavater tomarrow.
PS. I had 2 bear (only 160# 1 1/2 year old bears) less than 45 foot from me while I was on the ground. Pretty cool, I was waiting for my son to get out of his tree stand when the bears came walkin in. I got some pretty cool video of it! Yes, I had nothin in my hand but a camera. My kid had just unloaded his gun and was about to come down! Did not see any bear that were shooters yet but this weekend was the bomb with what happened
