The snow fell yesterday and we poured concrete. The sun is here today to reveal the covers and keep it moving with getting the 7th tee built. Yesterday was a good day for getting things done with our projects. Today is dry, but more weather is approaching. Compaction tests are being performed on the base material prior to construction of the walls. Compaction has been good overall, however the moisture content in the soil has been too high, and has put some bumps in the road. Landscapes is using blankets to keep the moisture off and keep the ground warm as possible. Pictured here is the bottom wall or wall #4. This is the wall along the cart path and holds the most amount of pressure. It has been designed to have a concrete wall behind the decorative stones to ensure the wall will hold.
So far the installation is going very well. The stones used for the wall are named "Rosetta Stone". They are engineered to fit perfectly and provide the stability we are looking to obtain. This particular type of stone is named the "Vail Stone" because it is designed to match the rock outcroppings seen throughout East Vail.
