In August we plan to start construction of our 2-2.5 acre pond. Have just about everything planned out, to the best of our knowledge, except for location. We don't know where exactly to put our pond.

Attached are two images ... (1) is a topographic map of our property and (2) one with the pond location. The property was mainly timber but in 2020 most of it was destroyed by a tornado. There is a fresh spring (very little output during the summer) that I'd like to build downstream of so it feeds into the pond. The general idea is to levee on the lower side (west) and overflow into the existing dry creek.

Would love your input on this!
