Case Nutty 1660
Well-known Member
The last three days I have been in "Dirt Mode" putting hours on my 450 pushing a dirt pad back into the hole a Oil rig left here in the mid sixty's, From what I was told it was a Wet year here and they built the location and drilled with water standing all around the pad, What a mess to deal with even after all these years! Top 6"-8" was a breeze, after that you have Very packed and mix-match soil with 3' chunks that are still holding together when I doze them out! I found at about 1 1/2' level that it was extremely packed and tight soil so I got the 770 hooked to the "603" ripper and after Many trips getting deeper it allowed me to get through the hard pan, then I have been ripping the "grade" dirt as well, still have quite a bit of work to do on it today but have estimated I will have moved 250 yards of dirt or more when I am done
