The Big Scrape! Bobcat Skid loader..building campsite areas..and finishing up the new gravel road!

What happens here

Once the skid steer has distributed the bulk of the mulch, a landscape rake is used for the finishing touches. The presenter highlights the effectiveness of a 'landscape rake' (specifically a Cobalt brand rake from Lowe's) over a standard garden rake for spreading and leveling materials like mulch or gravel. The wide, sturdy head of the landscape rake allows for efficient smoothing, creating an even surface in the camping area. The goal is to make the area suitable for camping and bonfires.

Goal: After initial spreading with the skid steer, a specialized landscape rake is used by hand to finely level and smooth the mulch in the camping area.
