    If by chance anybody is in the construction/landscaping business could you please be on the lookout for some corrugated plastic drainage pipe that can be easily obtained/liberated?

    12" diameter x 3 feet long would be optimal but we can cut longer lengths with hand saw.

    I have it sitting at my house. How long does it actually need to be?

    Wow, that was fast! "Ask and you shall receive" I always say. Bloody perfect Mikie!

    Let's start off with a section 3'-6" long. I volunteer to schlep it up the canyon since it's my idea. There's a good place for it under the waterfall up towards the current "top".

    Ummm...I may be just a little out of control? :)

    Bkmnstr. If it's the same spot I'm thinking of, I thought another idea would be a 6' ft bridge. Just a thick plank pinned on both ends and let that erosion do it's thing. I was planning it last year but unfortunately I can't walk! Arrgh. But thankfully I can ride. Good on you.

    O.K. but I'm going to look kind of funny with a 6' bridge strapped to my back. :!:

    Oh, and the 12 inch x 3' 6" pipe is normal riding gear? ;)

    Hey Hillbilly; Since your morals won't let you to go there, allow me to gay this thread up good.

    It won't be the first time I strapped on a big, black, ribbed one! :oops:

    No pics necessary Jimbo, I think the mental image is bad enough.
