[QUOTE="dcolvin, post: 85001, member: 1093"] I just finished building a high-tensile 5-strand electric fence and had to cross a creek that floods and usually contains a lot of debris during heavy floods. I decided to run 1 strand of 12 guage high enough to be above the max flood level and then tied off electric fence rope every 6-8 inches to dangle down like a curtain. I figured it's visible enough for the cattle, will still shock them and will not impede the flood. The nice part is the span is very irregular in height, so I could cut each rope piece to fit the terrain. We'll see how this works, we let the girls out on it today for the first time! Diane [/QUOTE]
