What the ground in Leadville is like

The USDA soil survey rates mapped ground in Leadville for septic drain-field suitability across roughly 1.2 square miles. About 100% of the rated ground is classed "Very limited", the survey records severe restrictions for a conventional drain field across most of that ground.

In Leadville, the leading limit is large stones: the ground is full enough of rock fragments that trenching a field is mechanically hard and the soil fabric between stones is thin. Digging and bedding pipe become the practical problem before hydrology does. The survey flags that limit on about 98% of the rated ground here.

The limiting features the survey records most often here:

  • Large stones98.1%
  • Slope91.9%
  • Slow water movement79.0%
  • Seepage, bottom layer21.0%
