I've started going around my pond, lifting the edge of the liner up to give a definite lip above the water line. One of the things I would like to really change is the area along the stream bank. I originally dug it with a shelf for the large rocks to sit on, but I've discovered that they tend to slide into the water when the dogs approach the edge. Since I have the liner completely exposed along that area, I want to attempt digging underneath the liner, removing the small shelf, and leaving a bank of about a 30 degree angle, which I will then line with rocks back to the edge. This should still leave me at least 6 inches of liner behind the top lip, and I'm hoping the shallow angle of the rock edge will create a solid base that the dogs can step on without anything moving...
I'm just wondering if anyone else has thoughts on this, or if I have it pretty much covered? I'd hate to have it not work after all this work.
