Home Made Pond

According to countryside magazine of modern homesteading. HM RANCHING in northern nevada built a pond in the desert. He used a back hoe to make his pond covered it in 8mil plastic sheets. He then waited for rain to fill it or waited for snowfall. I hope to have my pond plans in place before fall 2010 so the snow will fill my pond plans. Seems to be the smartest way to fill them. Hopefully with the dirt I dig up I will just leave it in a hill or mound and hopefully use it as a sledding or snowboarding rub next winter for entertainment exercise time.
