[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 732800, member: 9"] On our home place, based on the well we drilled several years ago, the driller had sand down to 40 feet. On our other place, sandy/clay down several feet that gradually transitions to gravelly, clayey, stuff. At home place, we or our fence guys have yet to dig a hold deep enough to get out of our sand. Sure makes it for easy digging. But when things are dry and one has driven over a spot, the sand gets as hard as poor concrete. Even after a rare several inches of rain here, we can drive in pastures the next day. Water percolates very fast here. Even at other place, doesn't take long for ground to support a vehicle or tractor without getting stuck. Once you break through the first 2-3" of grass, when there is moisture present in ground, you can push a "sharpshooter shovel" down to hub without much effort. [/QUOTE]
