From Landscape Steps, Step 2: Excavate for First Step
Begin the excavation process by digging a series of step-like terraces along the slope. Start from the lowest point of your chosen area and work your way up. Each step should be roughly 5 to 6 inches deep to accommodate the 4x6 lumber. A useful tip is to mark the 5.5-inch depth on your pickaxe handle to maintain consistency as you dig, ensuring even tiers for the subsequent lumber placement.
