[QUOTE="TreeClimber, post: 1327345, member: 16101"] The tank trap does not need refilling. It's a tight canyon, heavily rutted. They park staff brings a dozer thru it, digging major holes, which litterally go from one 'wall' of the canyon to the opposite 'wall'. They berm up the end with the dirt from the hole. This creates swimming pool sized holes. As you crest the berm coming up the canyon, you drop into the swimming pool sized hole, hit bottom, and drive thru the water, eventually driving (or winching) onto dry soil, and continue up to the next berm. They dump tens of thousands of gallons of water down the canyon prior to the start of the event. The water fills each pool, progressing down the canyon. The holes will have between 4 and 5 feet of water in them. And because the canyon soil is so soft, there is no hardpan at the bottoms of the pools, just soft mud. Each progressiver rig up the canyon digs out more of the bottom, creating more difficulty. So even though they push water down the draw (canyon), it doesn't matter. It's a bitch. [/QUOTE]
