Ok. Got a little bit more done today.
Being that copper is currently cost-prohibitive, I needed to decide whether to do this or not with pex. This is a future aspect that needed to be setup now or skipped. Truth is: I probably should have just skipped it, but for ~$30 what-the hay! 100' of 1/2" pex--Yes, I removed the rock:
Then laid a layer of 4 mil sheeting over it:
Then broke out the cardboard:
Laid down a triple layer as a thermal barrier:
And covered it with another sheet of 4 mil plastic:
The plastic is just to act as a moisture barrier to offer some protection to the cardboard.
