I'm gonna berm around the sides and rear in case the creek rises it won't wash a bunch of stuff in my hole.
Abandoning a ditch line, repairing wash out etc. I got some plans for the spoil. A lot of it anyway.

Definitely stripping tip soil first. There is at least 2 foot of it down the bottom of property.

Test holes at top of slope are still holding water.
I love working the tractor so I'm sure there will be lots of changes over the years back there.
Having a stock pile of fill won't hurt a thing.
Just gotta get a spot to hold water.
