You might remember that I found this a couple weeks ago. Today I'm going back to it with rope, a tape measure and a GoPro cam. People on my Facebook argued that it was either a well, and old shitter or a septic tank. Today we find out. Not thrilled about doing it myself.

Don't do that dude. Are you out of your mind?? Knock that shit off. I mean it. don't make me come up there and kick your ass......:boxing8:
It's definitely not a Well or a Shitter. It's either to put water in the Lake or Take it out. My .02 And if you slip, it could be your burial site.
At least bring a GPS so when you get sucked into it, we can all watch where it leads too at the other end :partyguy:
He won't like what he see's on the other end. Water pumps are the same thing as a jet on a jetboat. :hilarious:Quote:

Toss a M80 in it to clear the water out :shock:
I thought about something like although homeland security is watching me from the dam.Quote:

My guess is its an intake structure from the old hydros that used to be there. The bolts on the top probably held the screens. It probably isn't very deep because the intake pipes/ducts are probably pretty close to the bottom of the lake.
But that's just a guess.
It's so deep I lost the wifi signal on the GoPro. The video is sweet from what I could see.
Folsom had a hydro back in the late 1800's. One of the first ever. That looks like some pretty old shit to me. Gotta be what it is.
Were you able to bring it back up?Quote:
