Lake City Excavation & Dirt Work Services
Lake City is a different kind of job — and not only because it's an hour and change down the Silver Thread Byway from Gunnison. As the only town in Hinsdale County, it sits deep in the San Juan Mountains along the Lake Fork of the Gunnison River, in country known for steep grades, slide-prone slopes (the Slumgullion earthflow that dammed Lake San Cristobal is just up the road), and a building season cut short by remote, high-alpine access. Excavation here demands real planning for ground movement, drainage, and reaching sites that aren't close to anything.
Anthracite Excavation brings the right machines and the right approach to Lake City — foundation excavation, grading, dirt work, land clearing, utility trenching, and septic systems built for rugged, off-the-beaten-path terrain. We account for Hinsdale County's requirements and the realities of remote mountain sites, so your project gets done safely and right the first time.
