Detailed Summary

A representative Barron County well begins with a thin layer of topsoil or organic matter, followed by a thick, typically noncaving layer composed of brown or yellow clay, gravel, and occasional cobbles. This is underlain by a sequence of caving sand and gravel—usually brown or yellow—which acts as the primary aquifer for most wells. Deep wells may penetrate into noncaving yellow or brown sandstone and sometimes thin shale. The majority of residential wells (yielding 12–20+ GPM) are completed at 70–90 feet, while higher capacity or municipal wells may extend to 150–180 feet to reach bedrock or thick, permeable sandstone. Static water levels are variable but commonly fall in the 25–40 ft range.
