Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Selecting a site Found clay - but at 25'

Thanks for the feedback and good info.

Currently we're doing a dig, wait and see approach and taking dig samples from around the property to see if we can find some clay closer to the surface.

Here is the general soil profile of the area:
Bowie fine sandy loam, 1 to 5 percent slopes
Typical profile
A - 0 to 5 inches: fine sandy loam
E - 5 to 10 inches: fine sandy loam
Bt - 10 to 27 inches: sandy clay loam
Btv - 27 to 45 inches: sandy clay loam
Btv/E - 45 to 73 inches: sandy clay loam
B't - 73 to 80 inches: sandy clay loam

Here are a few shots of the dig site (3 x holes). The last picture is before it started filling with water.
