Comments
Side cut the left side of the small meadow and noticed a small 6" deep movement. Went to the right side of the meadow and did the same side cut with no reactions. Looked pretty wind loaded at the top of the run but mellowed out more ~20 yards down. First turn into the run the whole little section ran pretty much the length of the run.
