Quiet Woods Saturday

Joe's Saturday's Mission:

Permantly eliminate the water hole by Main Lines 4th lip. The couple of inches of rain earlier in the week had the flat bottom covered by at least 2". After drying up for a couple of days the hole was still 8" deep.







A minature version of the Panama Canel was dug a couple of feet deep and nice fine grain gravel was found.











The dam was broke and the water rushed in filling the valley. Once the ditch was full, about 10 minutes later the water level dropped 6". Another 20 minutes went by and all of the water in the hole and ditch were gone.









Mission accomplished. Any future couple of inch down pours should not be a problem.













The leaves are finally out and helping the trails from drying out super fast.












The start of the new line off of the NBL's Line 2nd berm. All good packing gravel from the Panama Canal's excavation.












Brad's fire wood pile. I never see him gather it, but it is getting quite large. The photo does it no justice in how much is there.











Geronimo's 3rd lip. 6 foot tall and ready to shoot you to the moon. It has hardened up and is ready to be sent when we have good weather again.















Solo digging in the afternoon until Joe T. showed up and smoothed out the Roller Line's 2nd berm and new lip into the 2nd berm from the 360 berm line. A beautiful day to be in the woods chilling out. Too wet to ride, but I enjoyed my digging exercise and no need to think after frying my brain at work earlier in the morning.
