water channels

 This is the end of the water channel that ends up at Mooses field.  The direct the river water to channels that run along the side of the mountain and then direct it to their gardens.  Their rows all have a ditch beside them and the ditches fill with water. Quite ingenious.

 "Moose" has a nice place by his potatoe field.  The wood shade area is made from Poplar trees that grow by the rivers and springs there abundanlty.  they grow fast and straight.  the tent is in the middle of the pic and the "water closet" is on the right.  We had a blast there for 3 days.
