This is perfect. I have property just as you described with the slate layer about 1/3 up the hill and i can follow it on contour through valleys…. I knew there had to be a way top find where the water is going…l Thank you so much,
I'm in East TN and have hills on my property similar to the one in your video. However, my springs are all at the bottom of the hill, but they do hit slate. There is a massive layer of slate that runs right at the bottom of the hill. If I dig into it or drill it, almost at any point, water comes up through the slate.
Cool! Apparently your layers are different in that area. We have a lot of springs at the bottom of our hills here in Middle TN, but they have a lot more variance in the amount of water flow and the quality of water changes much more that the springs higher up. I have noticed that often the springs at the bottom of the hill are coming from one much higher up that go back underground (but that's not always the case).
@@lovefarmtn we had a wet weather spring outflow when we installed a culvert in a new trail we cut to easily access our pig “pasture” here in Oneida. Unfortunately it was at the bottom of our ridge however it was gushing out directly under a large oak tree in a 3” wide flow. Tim
I have a spring like this on my property but can't find a contractor. What sort of company should I look for locally that could do a project like this? I'm in the Piedmont of NC.
