Flagstone Step Project

This has absolutely nothing to do with Ultrarunning--much of what I post here doesn't--but I was proud of this step project in a new flower bed and wanted to brag.

Below is the finished project. The stone at the bottom is a large natural slab of limestone from my property. The others are purchased natural flagstone (origin unknown).


 
 

Below is the "before" shot, showing the behind-the-scenes landscape timber framework to support the stone steps.  The main key was leveling the cut timbers front-to-back and side-to-side.  Then it was like stacking Legos.
