Completed
We went for a simple very traditional style dry stone wall in Topaz Park this time at the Victoria Highland Games. It was built with random shaped basalt material from Squamish B.C.
There was a section of the 16 foot wall we left unfinished so that people could see a cross section of a wall with the through stones and the hearting revealed.
Even though we were a bit hard to find we were happy with the lovely site we had to work in this year, tucked under a grove of mature trees, away from most of the main events.
We had a lot of fun talking to the people who did find us and many of the onlookers who came by learned how a proper dry stone wall is built and why we build walls without mortar.
Check out what we built there during the games in previous years. 2013 2014
