Land with Well Data in the Shenandoah Valley

Well water in the Shenandoah Valley is shaped by karst geology — limestone bedrock creates an underground landscape of caves, sinkholes, and subsurface drainage. Wells drilled into karst can produce excellent water at 100 feet or hit nothing at 400, sometimes on the same ridge. Mountain-edge wells in Bath and western Augusta tend to be more predictable.
