The excavator finally arrived! In one days work Billy and Ray were able to bench a wide trail in. Luckily the soil has been dry and packed well enough so that we could drive up at the end of the day. Jay took the honors and drove his jeep up the new trail. Here is a picture he texted me from the top.
Kricket decided that we should name the trail "Toll Rd" - given that you can drive up to the top.
Tappy checking out the trail after the 2nd switchback which is also the steepest part of the trail.
Looking down towards the 3rd switchback.
Looking up at the final steep climb.
I was able to drive the tractor up and pull out a cherry log. We're hoping to sell a few cherry logs for veneer. It's handy to have a well built trail to pull lumber/firewood out as well as being able to ski on it this winter. Looking forward as it should be a challenging climb and a fun fast downhill with those 3 switchbacks.
On our way down to town we saw a rainbow above the gap.
