Message: [QUOTE="tedkxkdx, post: 670573, member: 39245"] I take my wheel barrow and mix in some water to the soil. Make it like cement, ie globby mud that is wet to hold its form on the jump. Water the rut, and put in the mixed soil and water. Form and stamp it with the shovel. Leave it to bake in the sun, if you have any, and then check the dryness by putting your body weight on it. If you foot slides or digs in too much the overall area is still too wet. Once it dries most of the way I stamp it down using my feet and just alternating my weight from foot to foot while going down the ramp. After that let it dry completely. If it is too wet or cold to have soil dry, I remove the high portions, or sides of the rut and wait till next summer to repair the ramps correctly. [/QUOTE]
