Getting to the creek from the Cabin is a steep slope. It has been a challenge building steps into the soft earth as heavy rains eventually wash away the effort. Today, utilizing the great spring weather, I decided to build steps onto the slope by building up the steps using the abundant local fallen logs and compacting the earth to create steps. Following are some pictures of the effort. I hope to build a step or two over the summer to hopefully complete the effort.
