Culverts Installed!

Today we installed culverts in the ditch on Tomasi Rd trail, and in Hodges ditch crossing over the power line. We fell through the ice in Hodge's ditch in early spring, so it would most likely happen again if we didn't add a culvert here. These culverts will be temporary, but we plan to permanently fix these water crossings next year.

We recently dug this ditch with our tractor. We did some final digging by hand to fit the culvert

The culvert is in! It's around 16' long, so we don't have to worry about falling off the edge of the trail

Done!

This is Hodge's ditch where we fell through in the spring. There was about 6" of water under the ice here

Packing snow around the culvert

Done!
