Default 10 tons of rocks...

... plus 10 bags of concrete, plus 10 guys working 10 hours =



One hell of a playground at Freddie's Hobbies in Ravenna.



Matterhorn on the south course



Mud hole



Mini matterhorn on the north course



Trickier than it looks



North course bridge



North course proper.

We set it up north course for scalers, south course for comp, but you know there's gonna be some cross-playing.

we need to plant some pansies next to the tulips... that way if some one whines about a hard section, we can let them run the pansies section

Looking good Stu. I can see the work in that,got a ton of work in my spot and a ton more to finish it up. Funny how rock doesn't go very far when you start stacking them up.

I am very glad to see that Freddie has stepped up to help you guys out. This is a win/win for you guys and him.

If any of you other guys get a chance to run up there. The Nostr guys do a good job. Freddie is a class act, and runs a very nice shop. If you like 1/4 oval, he can hook you up.
