thats close enough... the photo was taken on land that I was driving my fert truck around spreading fert on to grow grass as its a DAIRY FARM!!!!! 2 farms side by side 5000 cows between them. it was riverbed and if she ever blows her banks it will be again. very slow going on that stuff and none too easy on the body either...

So being the closest what do I win?...... nah I think I had an unfair advantage because I'm from farming stock and know roughly where Elvis is and a rough layout of the land... elementary my dear Watson!

I actually thought it would be hardest for Radar!! living in the Waikato with all that fine flat peat land growing grass like there is no tomorrow!!!!
what they do is tow a heavy roller (about 1.5 meters high and 2-3 mtrs across filled with water weighing 5-20 t) to push the rocks into the ground and the grass/cow poos build up soil between/over top of them. picking the stones/rocks is just not practicle on this scale or on this land as its rocks under rocks ontop of rocks. canterbury plains are mostly river plains (alluvial I think is the wheelbarrow word)
