  1. skidding erosion are yo fucking kidding me

  2. quality of the timber

  3. dude, when the tree roots gets damaged the quilty of the timber in the tree gets worse. That means landowner makes less money, and that means the landowner is less likely to allow hikers, cycklers or any other persons on his land.

  4. ur replying to a comment i made 1 year ago…..

  5. heck, im going to make my “hill grade” 80 percent. nobody cares. gosh lol

  6. even though i watched all 9 of these videos, these are freakin tree hugger videos. erotion? ruts? nobody cares! thats what makes it fun and technical. same with mud and water! i am also NOT going to discard of dirt from the desert somewhere else. thats stupid. I will just put it to the side and nature will take care of it. when i built my trail i took my four wheeler (atv) ,which is a polaris rzr, a weedeater, a garden tiller, and spray paint to mark it before i built it.

  7. whats wrong with spray paint? its much cheaper and quicker.

  8. yes lol

  9. great

  10. if you plot the slope of the hill on a grid you can use the formula x2-x1/y2-y1

  11. flags are for the building team…they are removed after building this is the reason we do not use spraypaint.

  12. i think i can follow the trail with out flags cuz i think i would notice a dirt strip in the middle of a forest or grassy area so isnt it a waist to use markers?
