The Gates Are Up!

,

Larry got all of the gates for the last section of the elk fence (except for one) up this week. We’ll either have to add more dirt under them or add an additional piece of wire. They’re set as close to the ground as we can get them, but the ground slopes enough to make sheep-sized holes under them in some places. They sure look nice, though!

The last gate will go up this summer. We need to add a brace pole in the sheep pen to hang the gate, and we can’t get in there to dig the post hole until the sheep go out to pasture. So, Larry will be back to do that in early spring.

New gates to match the new extra-tall elk fences are going up.
