[QUOTE="Walking W, post: 1753423, member: 24986"] My wife and I moved to Odessa, TX in 1977 during an oil boom. The only house we could afford was a place that stank of dog and kid urine and was located on what the locals called "rock hill". Caliche was sometimes less than 6 inches below the surface. There's obviously more than one type of caliche. This was what the oilfield folks call anhydrite. I don't know if that was correct but it was hard as could be and splintered into shards if you hit it hard enough. An old schoolmate of mine ended up at the same job but living in an apartment that wouldn't accept his dog. I ended up fencing my back yard so I could keep his Labrador for him. I mostly used a rock bar. 24 inches was the deepest I went but I cemented in the steel posts. [/QUOTE]
