What happens here

This project details the construction of an outdoor wooden staircase and an adjoining walkway designed to connect two different elevations in a yard, specifically bridging a rock retaining wall. The process emphasizes precise measurements for consistent step height, proper support with multiple stringers, and strategic placement of landing platforms to integrate with the landscape. It concludes with the construction of a walkway using gapped decking for optimal drainage.
