Planning for Foundations

We're planning to do some more clearing this weekend to open up the underbrush where the cottage will go. The plans for the roads and drives are pretty solid at this point, but given some of the land's features with substantial organic matter in the soil, it will need to be stripped with compacted fill put in place for the road bed and foundation at the cottage.

I also have decided to pace the workshop just to the east of one of the larger trees in the cleared upper area (see photo). This site is already nearly level, but we will need to strip the organic ,matter and back fill with compacted fill.

I have contacted TG again and we will try to go this weekend to see what he thinks. I'll post some before and after photos.

Bunyip Basics

I think I'll use this to determine contour lines for now. The laser level will come later.
