60' well with plenty of water. Always a relief when it's done!

Nice. I was stunned when mine came in under 100'. Way up on the East side of the Root. I paid 21.00/foot. Can't imagine what it is now. mtmuley

Just a couple rams harassing a couple ewes. Neither was overly big. But they were pretty preoccupied with trying to perpetuate the species

I will let you know pretty soon. I am going to be drilling in a few weeks or less (I hope). Expected to be less than 198.5 ft. But we won't know until we know.

I was tempted to grab that pack with a bow on it but I thought it might be a trap.

We use hard rock drillers. Wells need casing seal down to 75' to seal out ground water. Average well puts out 6-8 gpm at $100.00 per foot just for a cased well. $80.00 per foot for a Average depth is usually 300'+.

I told Slash we weren't gonna kill that dink, but then he saw a WA plate coming down the road.

Maybe he was in the mood for a neck roast

Mine was $19.50 per FT in 2009. Hit water @ 100 and it's 305 ft, 25 gpm. The windmill is 175 and water @ 98 ft. 45 gpm.
Both considered shallow wells in NM.
The price per ft in Santa Fe county in 2009 was $50 per ft.
There are 1500 ft, 5 gpm wells near me.
My neighbor witched mine.

I had a 320 foot dry hole in 2004. $20 a foot back then. This one was around $90.

First decent moisture we’ve had in a looong time. Slow and steady. Just what we need.
