A few shots of land prep for a new avocado orchard. I'm using a D-8 14A (disregard the sticker on the side) and a cable control ripper I purchased from our very own Willie. The D8 pulls those 36" shanks like a knife through butter. Pretty darned amazing how many feet of 4" pipe you can pull without even noticing you've snagged it. A 36" diameter tree stump is a diferent story though.
