What happens here

After initial grading, the skid steer operator focuses on removing unsuitable soil and spreading top dressing over the slope to prepare it for reseeding and vegetation establishment. The machine then approaches a pile of rocks, where another crew member assists by shoveling the rocks into the skid steer's bucket, prioritizing manual removal to avoid damaging existing grass. The loaded rocks are then transported to a wooded area for disposal.

Goal: Remove unsuitable soil, spread top dressing, and clear excess rocks.
