Thanks for the link iso haha. Yes I am 27 and so are my friends. Good idea on hitting up Big Ear's in summer but I am too excited to hit it up knowing it's under me right now.iso wrote: ↑30 Apr 2019, 10:02 amhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cepV5f2-MaU
There's a good way to do Big Ears' Tomb, but it involves manhole entry. Best to wait until summer, then you're not freezing when you exit.
The only time I've seen a snake near a drain was when one slithered over the top of the Rieschiecks outfall.
Are you over 18?
Hearing this has actually put my mind at ease knowing how uncommon running into snakes is. A hiker would probably have more run ins.ironfistdoug wrote: ↑28 Apr 2019, 10:35 pmI've come across snakes 3 timed in 35 years of going in drains. 1 in Snakepit. 1 bunch of baby tiger snakes in Alien's and another bunch (also baby tiger snakes) in Wormhole. Probably seen a dozen snakes along waterways. I hate them as well, but just keep away from them.
Big Ears is quite unique & one of the better mostly round concrete drains.
It goes without saying, but make sure you check the weather radar beforehand. Draining in winter usually sucks because it rains more often.bax0001 wrote: ↑05 May 2019, 4:42 pmThanks for the link iso haha. Yes I am 27 and so are my friends.

Depends where you live I suppose. I used to live up in QLD and January was when we had most of our floods.
It rains heavier.
Yeah that's good to know thanks for the heads up I always like a challenge
