Around our place there is always large boulders right around three feet down. Bedrock is 10 to 12 feet. Pretty consistent up on the ridges above the Mississippi. Nice to see you have machinery running! It's going to be an action packed summer for you!
Wow, you are really making progress Josh! Most of us haven't had the opportunity to witness this early phase of development so it's really fun to watch. Like the music too👍
I'm really excited about sharing this development process and getting feed back and ideas from folks aroud the world. hopefully we will all get smarter together.
Maybe a rock truck for a couple few days to work with the excavator to distribute the materials where you need them to bed the main road ? Did you figure something to do with all the cottonwood yet ? Oh the joys of development : ]
That's the plan as the roads dry out we will load and haul rock to build roads around the development. On the cottonwood trees, I thought you were coming over with a truck to pick them up?
Love watching and learning from you. What will you do to treat the hillsides you dig out. Sloop them, build walls and how does this effect lot prices as you have to shift.? Find this so interesting. Thanks for sharing. Becky from Kansas City
Does anyone else understand the profitablity of making piles of wood chips out of all that organic matter in those piles in the background??? PLEASE MAKE SOME COMMENTS CONVINCINGLY To JOSH, Mr Rocky the Crusher to turn all of that into SOIL AMENDMENT WHICH THE FUTURE HOMESTEAD LOT PURCHASERS WILL BE VERY THANKFUL FOR!!! Permaculture practices will raise the value of THE NORTH 40 HOMESTEAD PROJECT!!!
Brian, In order to grind up all of the organic material that we have which includes the almost 900,000 board feet of cottonwood trees it would cost $38000 to Chip everything on sight and then another $6500 worth of equipment time to spread that much organic material out over the 40 acre property. If you wanna write that check I'll be more than happy to put you in touch with the tub grinder guys if not get yourself a Box of matches and a can of gasoline becuse we've got some organic material the burn.
Essential Mountain Homesteading Not at all that much to grind up those piles!!! I promise I will come up with a piece of machinery and it will be much less Top soil is made from ORGANIC MATERIALS -- Ask your buddy Paul Weaton!!!
@@BrianBriCurInTheOC Please keep in mind as you're out there wasting your time, There are a lot of cotton wood stumps that need to be ground up. They will require a tube grinder in order to get the stump to fit in the machine. Good luck reinventing the wheel!
John Doe Hummm there will be 8 families living on this land raising their own meat, fruit and veggies!!! Whether YOU LIKE IT or NOT, the world is growing and changing! So either be part of something good beautiful and positive, benifitial to all involved -- or move out of progress' way!
@@BrianBriCurInTheOC no the world is not growing and the notion of progress by clear cutting the land is silly. No respect for the land and then you have the gall to lecture me.
John Doe First of all, have some courage and be who you really are... JOHN DOE!!! The NUMBERS OF People in the world are expanding exponentially!!! ONCE AGAIN ------>>> YOU NEED TO DEAL WITH THE TRUETH - REALITY!!! This NATION is the United States of America! Every land owner has the right to build what what desires as long as he is not directly harming the sourounding land owners use of their land. Stop being a Snowflake. If you do not have the money to buy the land... You lose!!!

Josh, great job on the video!! Enjoyed it.
Dang, that place has changed a lot. I couldn't get very far in due to the snow just 10 days ago.
There is still a lot of wet spots that need to dry and with the rain coming this weekend I may have to build a raft to get to work.

Rocky The Rock Crusher....
Please find a WOOD CHIPPER

The sand works well, here anyway, for ongrade slabs, otherwise a lot of rock. Nice vid, property is looking good.
