Oh, it's steep. I was there "boots on the ground" when it was being built.
Doesn’t seem like ten years ago. Time is sure flying by.
I’m going to shut down the brush hog coming back up the slope. There is absolutely no way to turn around at the bottom of the dam. I have to back down and just drive straight up. No soft spots. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to mow the center section of the dam, near the bottom. It’s just too steep. It’s difficult to walk up it. In a few years I’ll have to find someone else to get down there with a chainsaw. I’m having enough trouble now.
Go down there now with a sprayer and spray the trees to kill them now. That way you won't have to chainsaw them in a few years and worry about the dead roots compromising the dam. Be proactive rather than reactive.
