Ninth Hole Cart Path Construction

This is a picture look back towards the tee on 9, one can easily see the wear area due to cart traffic.  We shifted this path into the woodline on the left of this picture(right as you play the hole).
 
Same view after.  This area has been improved with traffic control.  Notice  the exposed rock in the mound.  ALso notice the lack of evergreens in the background.

We are missing a picture showing the path tucked into the woods, well out of sight, but here is another view of the wear area.
 
This is how close the cart path came into play.
 
Below are pictures of the renovated parking area between 9 green and the tenth tee.  The large expanse was landscaped with native plants, so that it would look attractive but natural the more it aged.
 
 
Looking back at the path on 9 as it goes up into the woods,  the green is on the right in this picture.
