The soil is sandy and packs when wet but not like the river sand pile from two weeks ago. Good thing the soil is sandy because over the years we get rain at the show but it dries quickly thank God.
There were no problems with anything binding up on the bucket. It digs nice but I still want to make the bucket as close to the 1:1 as humanly possible. We still need to learn a good digging pattern so we aren't sliding sideways as seen in the video a time or two.
I hope one of you guys bring a dozer some day to clean the roll in front of the fairlead such as a certain Terex or D8
