Fixing a BIG FAIL on the farm!

What happens here

Using the skid steer with the smooth bucket, begin excavating a trench across the muddy section of the driveway. The trench needs to be wide and deep enough to properly accommodate the culvert pipe and allow for sufficient bedding and cover. Carefully remove the existing muddy soil and any debris to create a clear, level channel for the pipe.

Goal: Dig a trench to lay the culvert pipe for drainage.
