Hi Kent,
A small ravine will have no significant effect, at worst just a slight
degradation of the front-to-side ratio. You can either follow the
contour of the land or run the wire horizontally across the small
ravine, whichever is more convenient.

I have been considering a Beverage antenna. I have enough property that goes up
a hill. My concern is I would have to go over a small ravine, about 30 feet
deep. Would this have a detrimental effect?
Thanks
