Moving dirt to the west walkway

Neighbor Mark wanted a berm leveled and gifted the soil to us if we could scrape it down with the tractor. Mark had several wishes that made this project more interesting:

• Level the crown of the berm so he can erect an outbuilding
• Leave undisturbed a pile of gravel that lay beneath part of the berm
• Leave undisturbed a pile of fill dirt that lay beneath part of the berm
• Clear soil that had been piled around a nearby tree to give the tree room to grow

Photos below show the original shape of the berm, the process of scraping and piling the soil, and the final shape of the area.
