Pine Loop and DNR Trail gates installed!

Over the last couple weeks we installed a single 16' gate off of the DNR trail next to Tomasi Rd. and a double 30' gate at the entrance to the Pine Loop. These gates will help keep vehicle and ATV traffic off our trails and Tomasi Rd. We no longer have to go through the hassle of using boulders as temporary gates.


Each post was buried around 4' deep with 160lbs of concrete added to the top and bottom 

Posts are in!

Some holes that we dug were filling up with water too quick, so a pump was used

This job would have been very difficult without our John Deere 4044m and backhoe

A big thanks to Mark R for helping with the hinge welding

Another thanks to the Hancock Public Works Dept. for lending us a portable arc welder

Done!
