Bourbon, Indiana
This doesn't answer your question but thought I'd mention anyway. My experience with a rubber mat was never good unless it was very heavy (mine wasn't) I got tired off moving cement blocks on and off the rubber mat all the time in the fall so I went and had local fab shop build me a 5X5 cover with a raise in the middle to shed water and bolted a seal around the bottom edge to keep water from blowing in underneath, you can see in the pic that I cemented a 3" pipe in the ground then took an old packer wheel shaft that was laying around and welded a cable winch too it so I could lift it up and move it over with ease.

Allthough yours is probably a much bigger pit than mine the same concept still applies.

so far no water in there

good luck

Brad
