you hinge one of the walls, the toughest part is climbing in to
place the stones.

Here's
a picture looking down into the pit with the stone in place. That

some moss and vines that are "growing" along the walls.

Important
Safety Tip: This is why a ladder is a good idea for a bottomless
pit. If you *do* fall in, you can always climb back out.

The
pit taken apart into its three components. You can see the ladder
on the back wall of the pit. The yardstick shows that this section
is 3' tall.
