Our county road dept had a cave full of old dynamite that they used in their rock quarries. The old dynamite was "leaking" and needed to go since they have been hiring the explosives work done by another company. The county worker that use to do all the blasting died of a heart attack and they asked me if I'd get rid of it since I've been using explosives for mining the last 40 years. We went up the mountain and I set the final charge in the cave. Made a hell of a bang and sent rocks several hundred feet into the air. All you could see was people running...................lol

Morning Don, Charlie and Pat.

I'm getting ready to head out to do some field work. It looks like the snow has ended with only a trace. It's warmer today than it has been in weeks. And it's not raining.

Later guys.

That's a good one........Explosion........quiet.

Did it leave a crater, or just collapse the cave?
