Backyard Fort Zip Line

Brent and I worked on completing the Fort that he built in his backyard. The last feature of the Fort was a Zip Line. We put in the lower end post (10 feet) into a 3-foot deep hole 12 inches wide. It took five bags of concrete to fill the hole.


Then we augured the same size hole for the high end pole (14-foot) and poured cement again.







Once Brent had the cable was up and guy wires were installed to stabilize the two end posts,





it was time for F U N ! !









Even the water cannon is up and working. Anyone want to have a water fight?
