we find BURIED Utilities the WRONG way!

What happens here

Begin preparing the area for the natural stone walkways flanking the patio. Use a Bobcat mini excavator to dig the initial trenches for the walkways. As a large portion of the area is solid limestone, manual labor is required to break up and remove large chunks of limestone. The mini excavator then loads these large stones into the Kubota skid steer's bucket for transport and disposal. This is a very labor-intensive process due to the bedrock conditions.

Goal: Prepare trenches for walkways and remove heavy limestone
