Im starting to plan for the out Door Riding Ring we're setting up in the spring.
We have good spot picked out, Pretty flat...or it will be after im done with the box blade work.
My question is, whats the best way to dig some drainage channels in the area so i can put in some weeping stone and Weeping tile before i back fill with the footing (as in "Horse footing") materials. I have a FEL and a 6' Box blade with tines.. can it be done or....am i going to need to rent a small backhoe/excavator ?
I envision the drainage channel to be 2' wide and anywhere from 1' to 2' deep
the ground is Solid blue clay once you get down 4-6" so water just sits if its not got good Drainage.
