Here are some shitty cell pics of what we cleared today. The areas in red are where Donnie built a course at the last comp. It's coming along very nice. This place is getting huge.

The moss will come back as the summer approaches and the humidity level kicks up, the cleared brush is awesome though

If you look at the spot that Kenny has inside the Red is where Kinson & I cleared out & the green slime is mostly gone since the sun shines on it & i bet after a couple of weeks in the sun the newly cleared spot will start sheading the slime also.

The moss always comes back to some extent but it will be much less now. We took down a bunch of overhead vines and limbs that were blocking the sun.

Do you mean that I can't blame my bad driving on the vines that wrap around my wheels anymore? You guys suck!

I also bought a cheap sprayer that I am going to spray the rocks down with bleach occassionally. That should take care of most of it. This all day rain will help with the dirt on top of the rocks.

I was just going to recommend this. I ran planted fish tanks for years and once a year I would uproot all of the anubias and bleach dip the leaves in a 5% dilute. Kills off all algae and slime instantly

Holy smokes, didnt even recognize that spot. The stump in front of the big rock gives it away. Great work, you guys are kicking ass up there.
