    Heading on a family vacation to Cancun the last week of February, I have never been to Mexico but have went on fishing charters a couple times in Maui. I am hoping to bring my 7 year old out fishing one day while we are there. He is a fanatic about any kind of fishing we have ever done. Not...

    Backfill is done, just filled in without compaction, still have close to 60 yards of topsoil to dress things up with next summer. Appreciate all the advice given.

    The footings will be below frost line, i just can’t get dried in this year so the crawl space area is exposed to frost/ outside conditions.

    Any builders here? Foundation advice

    Agree with both of you the minimum cost of straw would at least give me piece of mind but also clean out would suck. It is going to be an unheated vented crawl space. It’s pretty much an April-November type cabin. Will have water, septic, power but will be winterized yearly.

    Thanks for the info guys, I still have a board running the perimeter inside from my pour bracing so I can brace it from the inside very easily. Kinda concerned it will be a swimming pool come spring melt but not a lot I can do at this point if the consensus is that it’s a bad idea to joist and tarp

    Any builders here? Foundation advice

    Yes this will be 100% diy, no I’m not even close to a carpenter. I chose 6” ICF walls because I cannot get a concrete truck to my site and used skidsteers with concrete buckets for the pours. I’m not sure what you mean by plating or hanging but floor joists will be resting on the sill plate with...

    I don’t know moisture content but it is pretty dry. I understand your not supposed to backfill without the floor system in place I just figured uncompacted backfill would be less risky than the freezing.

    Thoughts on no blood trail?

    In this case I think anyone could have followed tracks through fresh snow. My dad was a bowhunter education instructor, I started helping set up and follow mock blood trails when I was 6. Of course everybody wants a blood trail you can walk a brisk pace on but it is a learned skill...
