Mary O's Barn Walkways

 "After 27 Maritime NW winters, we finally have a dry area in the worst paddock, where the downhill slope to the barn (original owner's plan) and rainfall (8" this January alone) defeated even French drains between October and March. We did a test of three sections, placing them where one horse had to walk out of her stall into fetlock-deep mud. The interesting thing is that not only did the panels have no standing water in the worst rain, but the paddock area ABOVE the panels was much drier than ever before." - Mary O
