We are 45' above the water table which is defined by a creek no more than
100' distant. We are on sandy morain (sand that is fine-ground glacier deposit with the occasional stone to boulder thrown in) The literature on using a sand spike to create a well says that 25' should be the maximum depth.I am wondering if it would be possible to run "shallow" well to a depth of
60 feet using 1-1/4" or 1-1/2" pipe and still have a workable well. The well is to be used for watering the garden and making a back-yard skating rink in the winter. Therefore there is not need for a great deal of water flow.Are there any web sites that discuss the hows of digging such a well ?
