13th should work fine.....Again it would be nice to have a "metric **** ton" of material staged on the landing first. Is this something we need to plan and do?

Thanks Rick!

I'll contact Elyse to confirm, but she said yesterday that after this weekend's overwith (Cowbell Run), she will be dedicating as much time as needed to get the rock up to the landing---something in the neighborhood of 10-12 loads of mostly larger material...and again, if anyone's available, and has access to a dump trailer, coordinate with her to lend a hand....and if you need her contact info, pm me! :awesomework:

I will bring my truck and trailer if I get the trans back in it. Are you guys going to rent an excavator?

We made a rock moving sled but it was a failure, it was too jerky and the rocks would not stay on the sled (tied down) over all the rough terrain.

There's gonna be one for the landing....(need to confirm-left message)...if not, then the bobcat will be there to load; it's a little slower, but it got the job done last time...:awesomework:

Good to know, but we'll just have to see what Jeff came up with...:awesomework:
Jeff, what's this toboogan look like??? Would it be feasable to throw a narrowed 2.5-3.5K axle under it?

I have alot of respect for Cory's opinion and experience with this but I still want to try.

All I'm trying to do is drag 6-800#s of rock behind my buggy. Ricks rig would drag more due to it making more anti-squat and creating more ground pressure plus it might weigh a little more.....but...this is just so I can contibute to the rock moving effort. If everyone moves a little then alot gets done.

I took one of our (TR)SORP belly skids and am throwing a bunch of .125 steel plate at it to make....essentially a "car hood with a trough down the middle".
The rocks will sit in the trough and be secured with either car snow chains or chain link fence over the top...not sure yet. This will be wide and flat with the rocks down the middle so it's stable and won't tip over. We'll see...it's an experiment.:redneck:
