Productive day on the range today. 2 culverts were installed on the range to assist with poor drainage as well as 2 culverts installed on the roadway itself. Rise' may have assisted with measuring tape, shovel, "do whatever your told" and photography duties, but the big thanks goes out to Jeremy Fleming/Hat Trick Enterprises for the use of his equipment and to David Gruen for his operating skills. Thanks for all you do!

A word of caution: Please take note of the disturbed ground, that settling may occur and the ditches will not be forgiving. The culverts on range have created a ground disturbance that was not previously there, so please pay attention when traveling on quads or in vehicles.

Sorry for the lack of 'advanced warning'. Today, Friday July 24th, we are putting in new culverts to make the trip into the range, as well as, driving out to the target berms, more friendly to your vehicles' suspension. So the range will be closed until the installations are done today.
