Ok, another update. We almost stopped construction yesterday, due to so much rock located in the pond area. Lots of clay, but a lot of flint type stone in it. We also found some gravel areas.
Decided to push forward. In for a penny, in for a pound.
Here's some new pics. The bigger dozer (D8) went on through the gravel.
Have the keyway established. Finding more clay than expected.
I'm interested in any of you experts comments!




You can see the rock/gravel layer here that they have already gone through.

9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
