I grew up on a lake in Northern Indiana and slept on the dock more than one night in my youth, if the bugs were not bad, and it was a hot night, it was a very enjoyable memory

We had a camp and I did the same, dragging a lawn recliner out onto the dock to sleep.

Made really good progress today. Eest side of pond is finished. About half of the west side is done. I'll continue to pull dirt from the west side and level as much as I need to to get the slope on the dam where it needs to be.

Here are a few more pics even though these are all looking the same now. Hard to see grade and slope in a pic.

I am afraid that the likelihood is high, that you may lose a lot of the trees that the roots were disturbed, but I am sure you already understand that

Most of them will do fine. If I had to bet more will live than not based on the amount of root I got into and depth.

You can tell better than us with only photo evidence.

If they do it won't be a huge loss. Regardless the dirt had to be moved for easy access around the pond. Hard to tell in the pic but the east side now has a level walk path at least 10ft wide. Will try to run some more video when the west side is finished up.

That tracksteer is a great machine. I can't get over how much you accomplish with it.
