Well Drillers Near Afton, Wyoming

A typical residential well in the Afton area is drilled to approximately 130 feet to ensure a reliable water supply of 5-15+ gallons per minute.

The static water level, or water table, is typically found around 40 feet below the surface in this region.

The representative profile for Afton, synthesized from well logs in the area, shows an upper zone of mixed soil and silty sand/gravel (often 0-6 ft), grading into thicker intervals (to ~60 ft) of interbedded silt, clay, and fine sand. Below this, a more permeable gravelly sand to coarse sand and gravel sequence (often water-bearing) is usually encountered between ~60-130 ft, which is commonly targeted for residential water supply (with yields of 5-15+ GPM). Bedrock (limestone or basalt) is typically reached between 120-160 ft; deeper, high-capacity wells may be completed into fractured bedrock. The static water level is most commonly reported between 25-55 ft. Wells are usually drilled with rotary mud circulation, cased from surface to at least the uppermost gravel zones, and grouted with cement.
