ranch is on the railroad... and yes someone collects them and hauls them off... BUt then when I shred on their side of the fence once a year, I find a couple that slide down in the draw, that they were too lazy to go pick up... and they are in the way of the fence line. I normal push them away from the fence so I can work it,, but I would not loose any sleep over pulling back out of the bottom...
Being the RR bought an easement from us a hundred years ago or more, and they constantly are starting fires,,, keeping the vegetation cut back from the fence is important. They have burnt down my fence 3 times now, and once set the whole 600 acres on fire. We barely saved the house, so again, we keep the fence clean, shredded so the fire folks can work down it if needed. Every two years all the fence lines get cleaned up and cut. The occasion tie or spike bucket usually gets push out of the way.
