The ground consists of heavily weathered <br /> granite rock of the Pikes Peak batholith with oxidized bedrock (in part exposed in <br /> outcrop), saprolite, and weathered saprolite. Soil layer is thin and sparse, due to wildfire <br /> and associated local erosion. <br /> 2. Surface Disturbing Activities <br /> Work was performed by Tom Miller and Markus Raschke from 6/12/2015 to 6/26/2015 <br /> with an excavator CAS CX135 in the designated area as described in the approved POO, <br /> and shown in Map 1. The excavator was brought to site along route designed by FS using <br /> the abandoned sections of FS 541 and FS 542 as indicated. Fallen timber was removed <br /> and placed next to the track and placed back across the roadbed during reclamation. A <br /> temporary gate was installed off of FS 211 (Matukat Road) to control access, and <br /> removed, and reclaimed after project close out. <br />
