Nice start! My boyfriend and I had a rock pile in our back yard. Most of it has now been transfered indoors due to snow, still getting used to the idea of rocks on the carpet. Anyways, we must of rearranged 50 times at least trying to get more challenging angles and stuff. The wood ramps like krono7s said are a good idea.. You could then get a couple of sticks and tie them together with rope or cord to make a 'log bridge' and connect some of the taller sections together. Depending on how you space the sticks will make more or less challenging. If nothing else it's pretty entertaining to watch the car drive across it. Good luck and just keep adding to it! |
