H<span style=”text-decoration: underline;”>ave 2 </span>miles of head water over front around 3/4 of property about 100 feet down near house. To bring up when not frozen we have pumps gas/deisel or a ram pump or a windmill pump that can be deployed.

 

House has well inside with both electric and hand pump that has a stationary bike that can be attached. It pumps to a 2000 gallon tank in attic.

 

There are two stock watering ponds that have springs in them.

 

Inside house near zero risk, outside well only risk is if you would go out to hand pump water for animals but it is in consealment now and could be made to be cover.

 

Ponds are 500 yards out from housing area they have a wind break with trees and thorny plants with a swale on house side. Could hide in the bushes but that would be in bull pen and boar pen… do at own risk. We could drag hand cart there capible of carrying 8 5 gallon jugs at once.

 

We use about 500 gallons a day for stock and people.
