Escape from Monkey Island Hints
How do I work the rock canals at the vista point?
1 of 7: If you toss a couple of rocks into the canals, you'll find that you can easily roll one into the far left or far right ramp at the bottom of the screen.
2 of 7: Neither of these will do you any good. You need to roll one into the center ramp.
3 of 7: Maybe if you get two rocks to collide, you can redirect their path.
4 of 7: You'll have to time it right.
5 of 7: Those wiggly sticks aren't located where they are by chance.
6 of 7: Every time a rock passes a stick, you need to toss another rock in. Play around with the "tossing order" until you find one that works.
7 of 7: The proper order is right, middle, left, left.
