I have a few pipes 4 or 6 inches and they don't plug over years. I do have a "pool" in front of it though, which helps to bring down sediments before the stream crosses the pipe. Whenever I put a culvert, I like it to extent further out of the road. I will cut 15 ft if the culvert is not so deep. Then 20ft when it's like 3-4 ft deep of more. I've found a place where to buy forestry culvet pipes. It's 12 inches, polyethylene corrugated outside, smooth inside. I think it's the light duty version of the pipe used for roadwork. It's 160$ (CDN pesos...) for 20ft long, so pretty much the same price as two lengths of 6in PVC pipes, heavy duty version. I like how you smooth out everything at the mark of 14:15. Good thing you have a dump trailer with the wheels outside for better stability. I could not do that with mine!!! Thanks!
Good job Glen that will harden like a rock when it dries out and will be great this winter. JeffinMaine
Hope it does. I've had good luck with it in other areas. I will have to drain that other small area. Upcoming project there.

Thanks, Joe. Dump trailer has been invaluable to me. That is pretty inexpensive for culvert pipe. Maybe I should go up there and buy it!
Made it today also , I got up at 5 and 09:29 it shows 🤪
Haha
