I thought that we were talking about drydocks in the New World. Does Jason still get his cookie or not?

HAHAHA Thanks for the link to my website.

Here are some pics of the one protecting the gold mine in Mexico:

The big clue at the top of the ridge above the mine (man's silhouette looking down at the mine).

After clearing away the debris.

The way it works is: #1 very large boulder balanced on the tip of a point of bedrock. #3 is a 6 foot long rock blocking the entrance of the mine (entrance is behind the big boulder). #2 is the face from the silhouette and keeps the big boulder pushed against the opposite side. When you climb behind the big boulder to get into the mine, you find your way blocked by #3. When you move #3 out of your way, it releases #2, which in turn lets #1 roll off the tip of the point of bedrock. Gravity makes it fall behind the point. So, if you are not crushed by the boulder, then it traps you behind it. The point of bedrock prevents you from rolling it out of your way, and you are trapped forever unless you have friends still outside.

Those pics were given to me by Mike Pickett, and two of them used to be on his now defunct website treasurehuntersuniversity.com.

would this be the guard if the mine?
