New mini-dam

Another small project in the farm. Blocking a mini creek with lots of rocks and stones. Reduce flash flood during heavy rains, control erosion, have a mini waterfalls later.


Back/rear view. Lots of medium size and smaller stones as the main blocking force vs rampaging flash floods during heavy rains. About 1 meter thick at the base.


Top view.


Before adding a layer at the back. Our two dogs having a stroll.


About 10 meters before this structure, same canal, a bigger and taller mini-dam.
