Together with his friends, John Sims got to work and set down a couple of layers of concrete to secure the hatch rebar. They had to ensure that the structure was not going to crumble when they went down the stairs. They had to pour several batches of concrete to make sure it was stable. When they were doing this, he could not help but wonder what was hiding down there. At the time, he did not have a clue that there was something that would make it that much harder.

One thing that delayed their progress was the blistering heat of the Arizona sun. What was even worse was the fact that they did not have any idea just how the direct and intense heat would affect their exploration of the hatch down below. They wanted to keep themselves safe and protect the interior of the hatch, so they set up a tent over the site. They also put up a Sonotube cardboard structure around the entrance to prevent causing any damage to it. After they finished pouring the cement there, they were all set to climb down the hatch and see what it had in store for them.
