I think we are OK. I will know more after today. The only thing that might need help on is the moving of all the logs. I was thinking that one evening we cound get some trailers up there to move all of the logs from the lower lot to the rock garden

What about stumps?

Also--if you look at a map--right at the Y is still reiter road. To the left turns into may creek road :awesomework:

i was hoping it was walker valley. it is closer to me. and i i break, that will be a long drive home. oh well, mabey next time.

meek, you got two work party threads intermixed...there is also one at Walker on the 19th/20th....

Just got home and we got a lot of rock hauled today. I think that the road to the rock garden will be closed tomorrow also.

As in......making it smooth??? Back in April, that road cost me a dad-gum trailer jack, and also cracked the wood the RF camper tie-down's mounted to...

So is help needed more for saturday or sunday? And what should one bring to help. Id like to finally make my contribution. Truck is open on 32's though so dont plan on me going to deep:;

They are narrowing up the creek crossing, logging the sides,hardpanning it. Just trying to protect it as much as possable.

They are also going to close the same creek crossing under the powerlines, and redirect traffic down the main road and over to the power lines.


So, depending on equipment and I will discuss this with charlie tommorow night. Here is the rough plan.


We need rock dumped up on the upper road to the new area.

The creek crossing has to be closed under the power lines and the creek crossing on the road finished.

I am not sure what will be done by satuday with the equipment that the DNR has now.. Hopefully have more answers to this at the meeting tommorow night...

As for which day. I would say saturday...

Yes Saturday would be the better day for any help and also Sunday wouldn't hurt.

For the most part from talking with david i think the equipment is takin care of, not sure if dump trucks are still needed but it sounds like he is going to rent a 11K excavator for friday through sunday i beleive

But im sure charlie will know more after today

Another day of moving rock. thanks to Sam for the help today and also Scott ( Box Boy ) for all of the stumps today

Not a problem Charlie, will see you out there again tomorrow

Today we finnished the road / creek crossing and also hauled logs. stumps and deris in for Saturday and sundays work party

Here are some pics of the new crossing. It is so nice not to drag anything going in the road now

Thanks Ryan ( trackhoe man ) for all your help today and also Scott for the generous donation of stumps agian. Also comming to Daves rescue

Right now the next work party is sceduled for Saturday to plant logs in the stream and generally play in the water all day

I was thinking about heading up there this afternoon and camp the entire weekend up at the second area. Is there anything special that is needed that i can bring up? I plan bringing my neibors single axle trailer and its bed is about 4.5' wide and 6.5' long.
