The march to Fremont Pass continues.

The roadbed is complete for a foll circuit. The grade ended up at about 1.5%, which is just fine. Next I need to plane/ sand the homabed sub roadbed to either flatten the cross sloping,  or provide just a touch of super-elevation.

This was the hard circuit,  as there was a lot of cutting and measuring and re-cutting of the risers. The next circuit will be easier because I can rely on 1x4 spacers to get the job done. Yes, Jim, this will accommodate the Ridgeway spark arrestors.
