    You also helped the new owner find water on his land. He can use or fill it in properly now. Even if he needs a well drilled that helps locate the water table. My dad had an old well on his camp property. He never reopened it even when retiring there. This is just one of the me many ways you open land to new uses.

    Man that gives me chills !! That could have been a totally different day if he would have fallen in that !!
    Thank goodness all is well !
    Thanks guys for the video and a nice job !
    Keep us posted if you do anything else on this job , I/we would like to see if you do . 🇺🇸👍🏻

    Dad said when exploring an old homesite to always look out for the well. I stepped on one that had old boards with God knows how many years of leaves on it. I only went down about 4 feet as it had been partially filled but it put the fear of holes into me. We live out here in Gowensville and have an old hand dug well that at one time was about 30 feet deep. It was dry so I have been slowly filling it in with dirt and rocks.
    I literally broke out in a cold sweat as you lowered that GoPro down but I couldn't stop watching!
    You guys be careful out there!

    I've seen a 65 foot dry hole in the crawl space under a kitchen in the Travelers Rest area. If I remember correctly it had something to do with hiding the ingredients for alcohol production during prohibition days. It was about 4 feet wide and dry as a bone. All hand dug. Cool find. Glad you stayed looking down at it and not looking up and out of it.

    Thirty-plus years ago I was running a tree-planting crew near Bingham, Maine and decided to explore an adjoining area that had come up entirely in third-growth Black Spruce. Having never been thinned, the crowns of the trees, which were six to eight feet apart, had grown together, blotting out the sun, and none of them were more than six inches in diameter. I found myself walking in a shadowy "netherland" and all sound was absorbed by the thick layer of pine needles on the ground. I kept turning around to keep an eye on my red pickup truck, which kept dwindling in size. It was my only, "reference point"- it would be all too easy to get lost in there, as everything looked exactly the same no matter which way you looked. I soon started seeing the remnants of stone walls, half-buried in the duff; I then stumbled across several pits which obviously were cellar-holes and realized I was walking through what used to be small farms and the attendant farmhouses. The strangest thing I saw was a "ghost" apple orchard, the trees long dead from being shaded out and covered in lichen. It was about this time that it occurred to me, "What if I fall into an old well?" My crew had gone back to their camp; I was on my own, and we'd finished the adjoining tract so no one would be coming back there for a while. I gingerly picked my way back to my truck, avoiding every depression in the ground. I remembered a true story I'd heard when we were working down South, of how a forester had fallen into an old well while out "cruising timber" in a pine plantation: the only thing that saved his ass was that he wasn't alone and his partner went looking for him after he didn't come back to their truck.

    Judging from the time from drop till hit, im estimating that well to be about 85' deep and dry as a bone. (Estimate was made about half eay through the vid, the 2nd time you dropped a branch in) That would hurt when you found bottom.
    That being said, yall have a kick-a** job and an excellent job of undergrowth clearing. Wish I could get into a gig like that up here in central Illinois. Keep the vids comming. Love em.

    Years ago, my dad said that he and my grandpa hand dug a well, and for whatever reason, the rope fell in, or was pulled up, so they had to lock arms back to back and walk out of the well. I'm sure that it was an arduous climb.

    Always like to see a place cleaned up. Bet that well is DEEP being it was dug on top of a hill. Found a lot of stuff while I was in the logging business(drove a truck). Found an old civil war cemetary the forrester missed. It was on an old home site and unmarked. Not trying to be nosy but what are your hourly mulching rates? Here in Ga they run about 150.00 an hour. 100 ft on the well......

    My guess is about 70 feet. But it's not a well. It is a Cisturn cause if y'all have had as much rain as we have had then it should have water in it. Sense the house it was attached to is no longer standing then there is no way for it to get water.
