Clearing The Ravine

This kinda gives an idea as to how big the Ravine is, I’d say it’s about 75′ x 45′ give or take I’m about 3/4 of the way around cutting Alders down to about 3′ off the ground. These will grow out as stealthily bushes. They completely surround the Ravine. I am cleaning dragging the fallen trees out as I go. I think it will be a nice green belt Ravine all grown over come spring, then who knows might fill it in, or leave it, if the creek ran all year I’d definitely leave it. The creek only runs from the snow and ice melt though.

and another, this is what it looked like all the way around when I began. Quite a bit of Alder clearing going on here, yes I’m saving some for the Smoker.
