| The mulch was 9 inches deep in places! |
 |
| All cleared off |
 |
| Making progress |
 |
| A good stretch completed |
Also did some path widening next to some steep drops
Meanwhile back on the Slurring Rock linking path, Fred and Frank H carried three loads of timber ... and equipment ... and personal gear up to the worksite and pitched into construction work.

| Section of path requiring steps |

Work in progress

After lunch, just as matters were going smoothly, we met the bane of a step-builder's day ... bedrock!
Moving swiftly through plans A, B and C we settled on plan D which involved an enormous amount of 'grunt' (well done, Fred) but got us to this near-finished state.
 |
| End of the day: eight steps in place |
Just some revetment and landscaping to do here, then it's further along the path ... for more steps!
