After years of planning and dreaming, we are currently excavating for our PSP house. The excitement is palpable!

One thing we can't quite figure is how to incorporate a root cellar. Mike's books/DVDs don't give many specifics, except for a fall out shelter. In which case, if we are understanding it correctly, there is no uphill patio. How then is moisture kept away from the uphill side of the cellar?

Thoughts and suggestions are greatly appreciated!
