What the pic does not show is I was on a side slope and had to cross the trench there or spend 30 minutes moving a dirt pile twice. I knew I had 50/50 chance of sliding into the trench but thought I could get my weigh out in front enough to not lay it over and use the hoe to push/pull myself out. I had only been running that machine about an hour and had not got the feel of it yet. I took it into a lot tighter and steeper places later on the day once I got the feel for it.
Made some progress Friday night, also ordered some fall bulbs and winterhardy plants to get in before frost (first frost is going to be late this year)
