Description:
tried doing something about this pedal destroying boulder at the bottom of the last jump on slalomander. its an absolute unit, so big! i barely managed to sink it into the hole i dug under it, i broke an oak wood shovel shaft as my pry bar! this boulder is way bigger than it seemed, an iceberg! i wanted to fill in the hole on the hill side but my shovel was broken. i broke two shovel handles today! sorry. i did manage to get most of this boulder out of the way. hope you understand.

 i got to move this rock another couple of inches over and down into the ground, I tried moving it over with a four foot crow bar as my pry bar but honestly this thing is so heavy i think i need a full length rock bar, my face was pouring sweat trying to inch this off the forest floor. i left a big air pocket under the boulder and completely filled the hole from half way up with all the rotting tree logs in the area and i hope the rock will sink further down on its own during the next rain storm

 ill try to actually completely sink it into the ground very soon this week if its still poking up, with a thick 4 foot long crowbar ill pry it to fall over and down, and digging back up the hole will be a lot easier with the other big stones out of the way, then ill smooth it all over and put all the stones that came up on top of it
