I'll push it down with the loader bucket after dumping. Then start driving over it a little at a time. This is a mini project mainly to reduce the area of the pond setback/buffer.

Once I get my track loader I'll be moving hundreds of yards of muck and fill around the property. I'm trying to get an idea of how muck is to work with. Is it spreadable? Gradeable? Mixable with loose fill? How pileable vs runny? Usable for dam backside? How thick can I layer it? I guess I'll probably learn as I go and adapt my plans accordingly.
