The Year In Review - Travels of John Mascaro

The below photo's are a photo journal for my website visitors to enjoy. I have been fortunate to have been able to travel from time to time and with each trip, I photograph turfgrass conditions that I encounter. I will continue this forum and add to the photo's (and of course soil profile samples) as I continue to travel from place to place.


Steve Wightman, Sports Turf Manager at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, CA showing a group of friends the stadium.	This is Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, CA being prepared for a motocross event. The field is underneath the mountains of clay.

This is underneath the movable stands inside Qualcomm Stadium. The stands were moved in and out of the stadium using these airplane tires and pulleys before each Padres Baseball game.	This is a soil profile taken with the Mascaro Profile Sampler of Qualcomm Stadium. The soil was very hard to support the massive weight of the movable stands that rolled directly across the turfgrass playing surface.
