Also restacked the rookiepile and made it into a 4-5' long straddle. Multiple cross paths with steep climbs, than the gap you have to span to get across. The outside entrance is steep and slick enough that I haven't been able to climb it yet. The outside entrance is in front of the rig on this one: Here's a a shot showing an undercut in the middle of the span, more often than not, my rear tire has tp pass under it instead of on top. Here's another shot showing the approach to the outside entrance. Harder than it looks. |

That pic was taken with a looong exposure time, 4 or 5 seconds. The ghosty trail of lights is from the nightcrawler's LEDs as it tooled through the garden after I pressed the shutter. You could do the internal lights in the cracks with LEDs and a low voltage setup. I have been looking at that, but it would be a pain to bury the wire. Lots of rock would have to be moved and restacked. I just installed a solar security light above it today. We will see how well it lights up the place i a few days after it's fully charged. Thanks for the kind words!!! |

Yeah, better update it now before I tear the garden down next week. Your LCC was definitely stylin' today. Very nice rig. Here's one of my recently finished Mosi rig in the same spot. MMPro, Punk Dig, 4s, 14T Cobalt Pullers, Dlux worms, BJV3 of course. Bcampisi dropping down a wall... One more of mine. |
