Did you know - there's a wonderful website that tells the water level ( and how deep they had to drill) of wells in Colorado!

Continue to zoom in and pan, until you find the area of interest. Keep zooming until you see a series of black dots like this:


Click one of the black dots and then click "View details for this row". The screen will split, and the lower half has detailed information on the dot you selected.

Note the arrows to the left and to the right of the legend "Viewing row 59 of 147" - click those arrows to move forward and backwards, to view information on other locations. The location you are viewing is highlighted.

Enjoy!
