Peak Excavation Dubois

About Peak Excavation Dubois

South of Dubois the Wind River Range holds its peaks white long before snow ever reaches the valley floor, and Peak Excavation works the ground between — the driveways and building pads of a town that sits nearly seven thousand feet up and feels every one of those feet once the cold sets in. Grading foundations in summer teaches the crew how this valley's ground drains, knowledge that pays off in winter when plowed snow needs somewhere sensible to go instead of blocking a culvert along the sagebrush flats. Dubois runs colder overnight than towns lower in the basin, and a driveway cleared at dusk can be sheeted with ice again by the next chore hour. This crew runs its passes with that in mind, timing the last one of the day late enough to catch what the evening cold is about to lock down. What's left is a lane a truck can take out toward the highway without sliding.
