look around for construction sites and see if they need to get rid of any fill. they will probably gladly let you have it if you have a way to get it to where you have to go.

Lots of construction sites when they're digging a basement want to get rid of dirt.

Use the thick dense brown dirt, don't use soil. Dirt from feilds would work, nothing from a wooded area though.

I dug 2 large trenches with a bobcat and got enough dirt for 5 atv jumps and a left over pile large enough to fit 3 atvs on about 4 ft off the ground. If ur able to, dig a trench and incorporate it into ur bike trail or something.

exactrly. You dig a hole inte ground, and spill the dirt on either side of it. So the whole is in the gap of a double. Or get a bob cat and dig a a whole section of holes and rhythm sections adn what not. thats be ill.
