Pulling #1

Today, half of the first hole was completed. Pictured here is the plow that pulls pipe and wire through the soil for 2 inch lateral lines. The pipe and wire are 18 inches below the surface. This is a great view looking back on the first hole towards the Gore Range. 
You will notice the planks of track mats on the collar of the green to prevent any tire marks from the machine. The pile of dirt is where the sprinkler heads will be located. Not pictured is the roll of sod that was removed before the hole was dug. Once the heads and wires are all connected and level, the hole is filled and packed, the sod is replaced and properly trimmed around the head.
