Detailed Summary

The representative geological profile for the Danbury, WI area, synthesized from a sample of well logs, shows a consistent pattern dominated by unconsolidated sand and gravel layers, often interbedded with clay or occasional cobbles/boulders. Wells are generally completed entirely within these glacial/fluvial deposits. Static water levels are shallow to moderate, typically 16–45 ft below grade. The most common sequence is: a surface soil and/or upper sand & gravel unit; local clay/gravel/silt or hardpan interbeds, especially at intermediate depths; then a basal sand (sometimes with gravel) which is commonly the primary aquifer. Wells for reliable residential yield (5–15+ GPM) are typically completed at 80–110 ft. Higher capacity wells or those supplying larger demands may be screened slightly deeper or within thicker sand/gravel units extending to 150–200+ ft where present.
