"I had wore the ground a great deal crawling out of the hole and dragging so many things."
This statement would not have pleased the transcendentalists. Huck had used the one spot so many times that he had worn a path where he had walked. He should have moved the spot around not only to avoid routine, but to avoid other people noticing him disppearing into the same spot over and over again. According to Huck, you can't see it even from just 5 feet away, but we know that he doesn't always have the best judgement in such matters.
