The gutter downspout is going to get rerouted.  The curve is the highest spot of the yard and so far haas not had any problems with water. I like the slat roofing idea but not sure if I can find it locally. 

 

I have ave a few of these stones that I had used as stepping stones for years but have no idea where they came from.

I started the canyon late last year so I got a chance to see how the snow and rain would affect it. Because this is the highest point of the yard the canyon drained pretty well. 

It’s been raining all weekend so no excavating. Also no rock shopping yet.

So we have been working on the canyon on & off for a few weeks. We decided on doing the Dry Stacking method of stone wall building. Since at most the wall is only 12 inches deep, partially supported and we tried to stack them leaning slightly toward the dirt.
