Land improvements & property improvements series! This project turned out awesome! Join us for today's PART 1 of 2 episode of completing the 5 acre project property down here in Southern Illinois, nestled amongst ten's of thousands of acres of the Shawnee National Forest. This 5 acre project property started a couple of months ago and today it is just about complete! In today's episode we'll check out the newly built lower campsite and get some before and after videos and congratulate Linda & Steve for their hard work and perserverence, as they spread the gravel on the lower campsite all by hand! Wheel barrows & shovels! Then we'll start on the deep woods road going up a steep hill and then finishing at the rock top (sitting on top of a beautiful ridge) future campsite. When I built this road in the woods and the remote campsites I was under the impression that the stone/gravel was going to be drop spread by a smaller dump truck, similar to my old dump truck. But I was very wrong! LOL. Join us today and you will see my surprise when you see the size of this rear spreading dump truck that the excavator showed up with! But with some last minute bobcat T650 skid steer work, cutting the road wider in a few spots, we were able to improvise, adapt and overcome to get the big, back spreading truck all the way to the top of the ridge! What a fun project this was! Stay tuned for Part 2 and the final completion of this land improvement project as it will really make a difference for the land owners in the way that they can now use it, and it will also improve the future land value and resale value.
