| ArkLaMiss boys...
Well this is the area I'm gonna clear for the coarse. Right behind the shop near the bathroom, tools, parts, and man fridge... I have a family friend that works for the county road dept. I asked about the old road that is taken up and chewing up. They normally give it to people as a foundation for gravel driveways. He said I/we could have all we want. They are getting ready to tear up and resurface a nearby country road. If you guys think this will work I'll give him the go-ahead... He said it would be at least 30 to 40 large truck fulls available which would roughly equate to a mound that is 40' x 40' and 10' to 12' high. I though it would pack down alot easier and hold it's shape until we get the concrete poured over it... Most of this is small gravel and dirt with some asphalt. What do you guys think? I'll start cutting trees this week! |

If that stuff is ground up good then it should be easy to work. I think the big pile with some type courses through it would be cool. Didnt you say something about a scaler type of course like 1BJB did? That would be awesome if it had some bridges, water crossings, trails, etc!

I already have a "dry" type river bed that drains through the whole 60 acres that Bracey, Adilyn, and I run our scalers on. As you can tell that area is low anyway so we could make the dry bed run from that area for some killer scale runs too. As I've told most of you I have a tractor with a bucket and a box blade. We can do what ever we want on the 60... |

Maybe they can give you some broken up concrete. That makes for some good obsatcles.We had a company dump 1000 yds. of the stuff into one of our old quarries.
