About Smith's Excavating and Landscaping LLC

North of Asheville the land folds up into the Reems Creek valley, and Weaverville sits in the crook of it with the Craggies standing blue behind. Smith's Excavating and Landscaping runs snow work through that country, plowing driveways, opening turnarounds and clearing the steep lanes that climb toward the ridge. Snow up a north-facing cove will hold for days after town has gone back to bare pavement, so the route is really a map of shade. Evening storms are the hard ones: you clear at dark, then again once the wind has moved it all back. The measure of a night's work is somebody easing out at seven without giving it a thought.
