[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1570890, member: 694"] Ravens gap wouldn’t last the first good rain here, too many timber products come through along with fine neighbors items like water heaters from miles upstream. The all time best was a cast iron sink that washed up in the pasture. That time the creek went from 10’ wide to a couple hundred feet. Creek goes from 4” deep to 8 to 10’ in minutes. Mine is 1/4 cable clamped to 8” pipe buried 4’ and concreted in. It’s not real pretty as it has been blown out by frequent biblical rains the last few years. Works like a check valve, as the water flow increases the sheet metal opens up, closing as the water goes down. The cables are clamped in the middle of the creek so the gap can blow out when a log comes through. Takes about five to ten minutes to connect the cables and rehang the sheet metal. [/QUOTE]
