We've done a LOT of work in the last two weeks in clearing the road and putting down road bed. We have also reached a milestone in crossing the creek.
TG and his crew have done a great job in getting us the basic pathway into the property and across the creek. They encountered a LOT of subsurface water due to the poor drainage of the overall site, which will have to be managed once summer dries everything out.
I worked directly with him and his dozer on Saturday to start clearing some of the upper area and making basic paths through some of the thicker wooded areas. I will have to do some more precise clearing, but now I can with my basic tools and my tractor.
