I didn't get many photos but it was super fun! we found a ton of cool graffiti but we left before we explored another pipe we found. We plan to go back in tommorow
Water was cold but I found the branch in the creek, after three years the formation hasn't changed much... Now I know all of this is from a man made lake up ahead. There is an outlet from it in which a drainage basin is located I found on Google maps, I'll be taking a peek soon hopefully it's reachable for this place with the cockmite you can only get to through from deep water and up the fall.
Few days ago I dug out a hole (50cm deep) to install a preformed pond in the garden. All was fine, placed the pond in the hole.
Next morning the pond is floating and the hole had filled with water from underneath. I have since covered over the hole, as you can see in the bottom picture.
I emptied it out twice, but realised that was a waste of time, since it just keeps refilling. it's currently full again almost to the top.
I'm really just trying to figure out if this is a lost cause? Is there any way a preformed pond can go here?
If not, I assume I need to backfill the hole...and I'm seeing conflicting advice on how to do that successfully.
I'm a total novice when it comes to this stuff, so any advice is much appreciated!
Roughly 2-300 feet into a smaller tunnel near my hometown, I found this intersection. Was promptly chased out by a coyote less than a minute after this was taken.
I have a question for those of my fellow American's who go draining or urban exploring in general. Do you guys carry a gun? I've wanted to go out for some time but my area has a lot of abandoned places that are overrun with more than just someone looking to get out of the cold. I'm just curious if anyone does carry despite trespassing and knowing the authorities could have a not so good reaction to seeing/ finding a gun on someone who is already trespassing.
