The daintree is great, kuranda is a nice touristy place, the scenerygoing up the falls is magnificent, the whole east coast is great cant speak for the west coast, if you get to NSW get on a train and head west to blue mountains, check out the 3sisters, the canyon here is huge i think i have read about 11km wide, might be wrong some other saber will correct me i am sure, its great camping, tho getting cold this tome of year?? The best beaches are on the southern end imo? But thats just me, what are looking to see??

sorry, also, i read 2.5meters eyes working slower than brain, 2.5 feet is no prob i am certain, lol... no rein forcement required Don't forget to stabilise the soil in bag with cement powder, the capping is to stop water from above the water proofing for water on the walls which may be a prob when used as a retainer. Over a meter i think it was and one needs walls re-inforced but less than a meter as this is its really just a garden wall and not an engineering feat, so you don't need to meet any requirements as far as i know??

Hey zen, earth bagging can build solid walls that will withstand earth quake, but i don't know if an engineering data has been created for side loads like those created by holding up/back soil. If you reinforced it somehow i am sure you would have no probs tho??? For how long would be the question. If you look at it logically tho, concrete besa blocks are used and things similar to do the same job, and there footprint is no where near the size od earth bag, so i would hazard a non civil engineering view that they would work effectively and if you cap the wall properly and seal it that it would be effective long term.. Reinforcement if actually needed only needs to be rebar spiked thru the bags at pre determined distances, and you would still use the barbed wire to locate lock. You can use rock as ur foundation or even bags of concrete laid in a trench for the distance of the wall you the puncture the bags with a spike etc, and water give 24-48 hours and start laying your bags. Cap with concrete and seal the bags side walls with bitumen or render or both

They are very tasty, simmer till the cap loses the red color and panfry mmmmm.

Hey micro, yeah i know it is a Pilocereus, or was thinking it was, i do live in a a cool area of the sub tropics, i.e. a pocket that gets heavy frosts but not regularly. My post was for ambient, who was asking for Pilocereus, and if it was in Oz.. but yeah you nailed it having damage, the new growth is always better.
