Among some various other pics I have posted to other newsgroups, here are
a couple of pictures of a hoe ram they use in Las Vegas. Extreme SW
Vegas, Blue Diamond and Fort Apache area.

When I lived in the Tucson area, in the foothills of the Catalina mountains,
we said there was two kinds of caliche.
There was the stuff you had to dynamite and then there was the really hard
stuff.

Now I am in SW Florida and live on a big sandpile.
