Land Clearing, Trails & Erosion Control in Burnet.

Selective clearing, erosion control, walking trails and bike trails for homes, acreage and ranches around Burnet, Bertram and Inks Lake.

The ground in Burnet

Built for this exact ground.

Around Burnet the ground is mostly limestone with thin, rocky soil and cedar-oak woodland, with granite near Inks Lake. Thin soil over rock means fast runoff and erosion on anything cleared or bare.

Burnet is home to Spider Mountain, one of the best-known riding areas in Central Texas. It's a big part of why bike trail building is in our DNA.

Cross-section of a TX Trailcraft path: crowned stabilized DG over compacted base and fabric on native granite or caliche, with a side swale and rock outlet. 1 2 3 4 5
  1. Stabilized DG, 2–3 in., 2% crown. Binder locks the surface so spring storms don't wash it out.
  2. Compacted base, 4–6 in. Rolled in lifts to carry carts and mowers.
  3. Fabric separator. Keeps base rock from sinking into the subgrade.
  4. Native granite or caliche. We read the ground on site before we design.
  5. Swale and rock outlet. Water leaves on our terms.
