    Clogged gray water line.
    Our laundry drain was designed to drain out onto a hillside, or into a gravel pit on the hillside. It worked great for several years, but is clogged now. We do not know where the line goes, or how to find it. Once we find it, we'll know where to dig.

    Any idea how we can find the drain line?

    Thanks.

    If the drain is cast iron then one of those pipe finders the water company and phone guys use will locate it. If not then you'll have to (1) dig it up and follow it **or**(2) take a prob rod and track it down that way. Good luck, Tom
