Camp Murphy Bike Trails - Rope Ladder Reinforcement Click on images below for full size view.
Rope ladder used to stabilize sand slopes.	The Rope Ladder Soil Stabilizer The soil at Camp Murphy is sandy and very sensitive to erosion. The Mulch-A-Matic process works for trail sections which are relatively level. However, other methods must be used on unstable sandy slopes. One very effective technique is to bury a rope ladder with wooden slates into the hill side. The ladder is suspended from the hilltop with a couple of buried 2'x 4"x 4" posts. The wooden slats of the ladder keep the sand from migrating downhill.

Post buried at hilltop.	Top rung of ladder is attached to uphill side of posts.

Slope is graded, removing enough soil so the ladder can be buried (4")	Ladder in position.

Backfill with sand.	Mulch is tilled into the sand and the hill is ready to ride..
