hi during this flood luckaly usfs had area / campground closed yet . it would have swept familys camping downstream . boulder caused water to deflect into campground which at time - half of campground here was under water due to boulder . now thx to bruce goss ,, during this years rainy season campground will be open and campers allowed to camp here ,a lot safer now .. .

I gotta say, I'm in heavy construction and this rock breaking stuff looks dangerous as hell... On top of 30 tons that can snap at any second and roll in any direction... They undoubtedly can read the rock better than I can, but one small miscalculation can end their day pretty quick.

Surprised he didnt use any snappers, they are pre-made explosives that fit into a 10-14mm hole. Drill the hole put in your charge, put in your stemming like sand, wet it, extend the fuse to get away from it, and set if off with 18V or more. See it crack into several smaller pieces, easy.....

I like how that crazy drunk Mexican Mario is swinging away with a cigarette in his mouth. They told him there was a Corona inside the boulder..that guy built my property wall..Arriva las chivas!

That's one of those jobs where the invoice should read; Charge for job $10,200.00 with the description $200 for doing the job, $10,000 for knowing how! He makes it look easy, but you have just seen true rock splitting mastery. So few of them left too.

@brucegossstonemason Good reason to move it then.

@breaksteel Situated in the center of the stream it diverted water into the campground threatening to destroy it and took out the driveway to a neighbors cabin.
