Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Selecting a site New pondout excavation has begun! Pictures added!

Pictures of yesterday and today. Hauled a lot of fill to areas around the place that I need to finish grading and landscaping. Nice as I gotta do something with it! Kept working on shaping and digging. Started the berm on the three sides ad getting to depth on the West end. The last picture is looking up from the bottom. Measurements show a depth of around 22' right now. We will keep the excavator in the hole and dig a "U" shaped bottom around where the excavator sits then walk the excavator out and dig that pad out to about 14' leading the track out as the shallow end. We are finding some awesome clay down deep. We need to pull it up one a few spots however for the most part we are dealing with really decent fill. As you can see in the snow pictures with the melt it was pooling. That water was about 4' deep in that spot. It's coming along.
