Were it not for Canada you couldn't tow your rv to Alaska.Would be nice , though, if you were allowed to arm yourself and protect your family from those highway robbers along the way. Hadn't heard about those guys. I'd like to try the trip sometime, but I'd either have to move or install a sprinkler system for the yard. I think I may be getting my wife into the moving frame of mind next year. We'll see. |

There is a machine that cuts a slit, lays the pipe in and covers it all in one pass. That makes the pipe part easy. It might not work up there if you have the same "bank run gravel" type soil we had on the PG side of the river tho. How do you keep it from freezing? |

In the fall I turn off the water supply, hook up an air compressor, and let the sprinkler system controller cycle compressed air through each zone for a few minutes each. Here, no freeze problem. But we lay out the system on top of the ground first, to see if it actually does the job. Before doing that, seemed to be missed areas. |

You must have a pretty big compressor. |

Maybe air forced through the lines. No gravel, just dirt with a high clay content. |
