Thanks for the tip, Bill. wink I used a bucket without a grapple to pick up the brush so the brush piles have a lot of sand mixed in that I scooped up in the process. I'll add some more dirt and maybe push some rip rap over on top to keep the small brush piles in place.

The tree trunks could be a problem, though. They are big and heavy - hard to lift even with my T-180 track loader. Will these float? If so, any thoughts on how to anchor them down? I thought about pounding a metal post into the ground beside each trunk and tying them to the post. I could also dump dirt over one end but, as big as they are, I don't think that would hold them in place. confused

Any insights would be appreciated!
