Man that loam looks so light and fluffy I'd be so scared to bench cut on that. I curse my clay soil for a lot of reasons but it does feel pretty safe when I build up a bank.
@50Acres this stuff holds a road fairly well. I built some of the other roads with the dozer in 2004, and they are still holding up well. Thank you for watching, and have a wonderful evening ❤️
Nerves of steel, Jeramy, nerves of steel. I would never attempt what you just did. I would have wound up at the bottom of the hill with the tracks up and the boom down. 😂. These mountain roads are my favorite videos. Have a great day.
This is super cool to watch. I didn't know that you could cut a road like that on such steep terrain pretty quickly with that thing I had no idea some of the potential that thing has
That tilt blade on the mini is a game changer. That natural gravel deposit is a double edged sword because some of those deposits also bleed water in the wet season.
@@bradsmith9116 I think the new setup is going to work well. I have struggled and spent money on microphones that are very undependable. It has been a little frustrating. Have a wonderful evening ❤️
Definitely be careful, some of that stuff gets sketchy especially with a fresh rain! It needs a few rain to pack it down and settle! That’s what I’ve learned on the steep hillside road builds! Drone B those guys are kinda crazy when it comes to digging with their tracks close to the edge! Like you said, one slip or mistake and it’s over! I’ve seen these heavy equipment rescues with excavators that slid off hillsides and the operators had to jump out! If they’re lucky enough to have time to jump! It’s so dangerous! I wouldn’t try it myself, no way! lol 😂 I like my feet on the ground, Jeramy! 👍🏻
It isn't dangerous as long as you pay attention. I'm a heavy equipment operator for a county road dept up here in WA State and pretty much our entire area is hilly and glacial till. I will say though, hills aren't fun when you're in a skid steer. I have to mow a drainage easement that gets covered in blackberries with our skid steer. It's uncomfortably steep and if you go over the cliff, which you can't see thanks to the blackberries, it's a 100' drop straight down to Puget Sound. Fun times. Wish Jeramy was closer, I wouldn't mind learning from him.
@mikel9567 what sucks with skidsteers, steep ground, and Blackberries, the visibility sucks and can really get a guy in a bad spot. Have a wonderful evening, and stay safe 🙂
These atv mountain road building videos are differently my favorite too. Keep up the good work, you are definitely one of my favorite channels to watch!!!!
That first dirt you were digging in on the other side of the road was so dry, it wouldn’t stack! The dirt kinda needs to be wet to an extent, so it can lay down and pack!
Jeremy, love your channel ! I just bought the kx040 recently ! Now purchasing buckets and attachments! Can you tell me best size digging bucket and grading buckets for that machine. Want to move as much material as I can but not t get to large. ! Thinking 36” digging and 36 or 48” grading ? Are those to large for this machine ? Thanks and keep the videos coming. Learning a ton !
@TimMcConnell-v2v I run a 30" digging bucket and a 48" grading bucket. The machine will handle a 36" digging bucket just fine. The only reason I don't have a 36" digging is I encounter a lot of very hard and sometimes rocky ground that I feel the 36" would have trouble penetraiting. Thank you and have a wonderful day 😀
Yeah building a road on a slope is tricky, but if i was doing it, I would've removed the leaves and pine straw before building, dirt on dirt is better than dirt on leaves and straw, less dirt running away from you. Hope it's not a road for something heavy or wide.....Goodluck
@triniharp8745 it's an atv trail, so I am fairly certain it will be fine. If it supports a 10000 # excavator I think it will support a 500 # atv. I have built many many miles of trails like this and have never had a problem. Thanks for watching, and have a wonderful evening ❤️
hello,my name is gerard and im a virgin...no expeince on heavy machinery but at 79 i just bought akxo80 4sr and a case dl550 to build my new castle in the mountains, it will be epic if i dont roll em lol WISH ME LUCK because a road like this i will have to do to bury a 3000 sq ft solid concrete home in the magdalina mountains of new mex
@gerard8496 Very cool. That sounds like a very fun project. Just some practice, and you will be fine. Thank you for watching, and have a wonderful evening ❤️
I watch a channel called Drone B and 99 % is mountain road building with excavators and backhoes! Most of the mountains are 95% rock and they wear out some bucket teeth scratching that rock!
@@jeramyreberpuredirt7873 yeah that material that a few people call shell rock is that stuff you’re digging in now and it lays in nice to make a good road base and it packs really well!

@poobank they are very versatile machines. They have many uses. Thank you for watching, and have a wonderful evening ❤️
Looks good my friend and enjoy your evening Jeramy! Thanks for sharing! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙋🏼✌🏻✌🏻💯💯💯💯
@@kirk467 you have a wonderful evening also.
just came across you're channel...nice work, thumbs up !!
Thank you very much. I appreciate you watching. Have a wonderful weekend 😀
Bout all you can do is kind trying to make the dirt hold up and keep stacking and packing! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yes, just stack until it stops running.
That tilt blade on the mini is a game changer. That natural gravel deposit is a double edged sword because some of those deposits also bleed water in the wet season.
@brotherbruce yes the 6-way blade is wonderful. And yes, you are correct about the natural gravel and water. Have a wonderful evening ❤️
Audio sounds great compared to previous audio, especially when I first started watching.

Thanks, you have a good evening as well.
@@jeramyreberpuredirt7873 I especially like these types of videos extra long, I could watch them all day 🤠
@cameronanderson2914 thank you very much ❤️
I could understand you better this time than any other video. Audio is good now.
@mcpiddler1135 so far I am very happy with the new setup. Hopefully, it is more dependable than my old microphones. Have a wonderful evening ❤️
I like this kind of road building too for atvs and utvs. Great job as usual.
@craigvanhousen559 Thank you. Yes, this is the fun stuff. Have a wonderful day 😊
So neat and clean
Great Job Sir❤
@@Davoneization thank you very much ❤️ Have a wonderful day 😊
Awesome Job!!

Beautiful work and workplace. Awesome job and video. Keep them coming!
@johnoswald6192 Thank you, my friend. I will give you a call in a few days to check in.

Jeramy, do you know what shade tint you have on your 40? Need to get mine done. Your new audio/visual equipment works fine,
@phillavallee4460 i don't. My neighbor did it for me, and it's just what he had laying around. Have a wonderful day 😊

I watch a channel called Drone B and 99 % is mountain road building with excavators and backhoes! Most of the mountains are 95% rock and they wear out some bucket teeth scratching that rock!
Yes, the rock is hard on things. Parts of this dug really easy. Some didn't.
@@jeramyreberpuredirt7873 yeah that material that a few people call shell rock is that stuff you’re digging in now and it lays in nice to make a good road base and it packs really well!
@kirk467 Yes, we have a lot of shale in our area
Yeah, how do you dig a trench on the lower side? Kinda makes no sense Jeramy! 🤣😂🤣
Yes, I don't see any advantage or feasibility. Have a wonderful day 😊
@ yeah, I’m still watching your video right now!
