What if it Snows?

That's riff raff ( riprap ) for the wash areas ( darker dirt areas ). About 80% of it is getting spread where it is, and used for border. This why God put the loader bucket on the other end of the hoe.

But you could pretty easily do it with the hoe.

I demo'd out these old light tower footings on hill and scooped those out with a BIG ### excavator. Like a 4 or 5 foot bucket on that bad boy.

Two or three foot bucket on a backhoe pick those right up.

 

I'll post a pic of the dirt I'm going to have him remove, then put that base back.

That's cause it's part of the wash. It doesn't get wtf deep, six inches maybe, but it turns to mud.

The base won't turn to mud.

Going to take the dirt out, put base back so it doesn't change the elevation.

Just dump the base down, and compact it, it would create a little dam.

 

We have plenty of water. It's just several hundred feet down.

Rhonda has a swimming pool lol.

Something like 80% of the water that comes from the snow up in Flagstaff and those mountains percolates into the ground.

It's actually one of the biggest aquifers in the country.
