A new twist on being buried in the desert

An interesting new offering in Vegas - a company called Dig This, that is being offered to meeting planners as a team building exercise. 

It's a heavy equipment company where corporate attendees can operate 15-ton Caterpillar excavators and 10-ton bulldozers.  

Every experience starts with safety lessons and equipment overview then in-cab training and then the activity.  It takes place on five acres of land and lasts   from 90 minutes to five hours, depending on the package booked.  According to Incentive Magazine, where I picked up this tidbit, the teambuilding activity is designed for 30 to 40 participants.  Of course, all I can think about is how companies might want to learn to bury their past.  Too much gangster lore for me I guess.

Anyway, good luck to Dig This.  If you know anyone who has taken part in one of the company's adventures, post a comment about it.
